Help with trying to keep legend from scrolling

D

deercreek

I would like to know if there is away to keep my legend from scrolling
when the rest of the page scrolls down? I currently do not have any
frames and my legend is set up within a table. Is this possible if so
how? Any help or ref. material would be appreciated thanks!

You can use position: fixed.

Actually I told you wrong I was using a list not a table and the
location in my css file I have it set as absolute I tried changing to
fixed but it still scrolls

Dan, if http://deercreekcg.com is the site you're speaking to, it really
needs fixing. I tried running the validator, but it choked on your site.

The very first byte, html> is wrong, there's no doctype, and that's only the
beginning of your troubles.

All that said, you'll be wanting to use CSS and absolute position your left
column so it won't scroll.

It is a Trellix site. I have never seen one of those that would ever
come close to validating.

Is what I see there typical of what Trellix generates? Good God!

S'far as I remember, the source of every Trellix site I have looked at
was like this one. Last year an acquaintance asked me to help with his
site. It was Trellix, and I respectfully declined.

Oh, one more point on the OP's quest to have a fixed non-scrolling menu
(legend): if it *were* fixed, the last five links would be
inaccessible, as they would be below the bottom of my viewport. Consider
an 800x600 monitor, with browser maximized, and with two toolbars plus
tabs at the top. This leaves a viewport of about 770x400 pixels.

Seems to have had help from 'guess what'?

<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" ?>

Winning combo!

Isn't that one of those combinations/compounds that explode violently if
they contact water? :)

I'd say daylight, or I wish they'd never see the light of day!
