Hallo Angus,
I'm using the underscore hack to get 'position:fixed' in IE (I got the idea from:
http://annevankesteren.nl/test/examples/ie/position-fixed.html).

Now some people say that this won't work anymore in IE7. Would that be true?

Thanks,
Arie.

Hacks are evil, evil thigns and IE7 has "fixed" most of them (annoyingly, as it still has a whole load of CSS bugs). I wish MS would implement some kind of proprietary CSS "conditional comments" feature like they support in HTML, it would make everyone's life a whole lot easier!

That said, check the latest CSS for the FreeStyle Menus, there is at least one hack that can deliver CSS to IE7.

Thanks a lot! Your IE hacks work great in all browsers that I tested! I don't have IE7, though, so I'm not sure about that one. (See http://www.let.rug.nl/~molendyk/positionfixed.html)
