Hello,

I want to stick one DIV to the bottom! I've managed to do that but when I scroll down the DIV doesn't scroll smoothly! Below is my code:-

<div id="x">
 <center>
  <div id="footer" style="width: 95%; background-color:#66CCFF; border: 1px normal black; top: 100px; position:absolute; align:center; height: 50px" align="center"><center>A</center></div>
 </center>
</div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<script>

window.onscroll = function() { 
	document.getElementById("footer").style.display = "none";
	document.getElementById("footer").style.top = (document.body.scrollTop + document.body.clientHeight - 50) + "px";
	document.getElementById("footer").style.display = ""; };

document.onscroll = function() { 
	document.getElementById("footer").style.display = "none";
	document.getElementById("footer").style.top = (document.body.scrollTop + document.body.clientHeight - 50) + "px";
	document.getElementById("footer").style.display = ""; };

</script>

Check attachment for the code too!

Do NOT wanna use CSS or any other JScript!
Do NOT wanna use "position: fixed; bottom: 0px;" as it doesn't work in IE6, 7, 8[citation needed].

Please help me!

Thanks,
Akshit Soota

0px does not work because 0px is not a valid css measurementthe coorect measure is bottom:0;
javascript to perform css functions is out dated,
the javascript given seems specific to the IE DOM, Mozilla browsers use a different DOM

I put browsershots.org images into a prior post
it does dock at window bottom,
I dont have other ideas, that ie hack to keeps "goto top" link in the bottom corner of long pages

If it works for me and not for you there must a difference I guess between my host and yours

Thanks for your help, but I got a better code! Contact me and let me know if you want it as it works in all FireFox, Netscape, Safari, Internet Explorer and much more. It is just using pure CSS!

Thanks!
