locking a div to the top or bottom of browser window

[sso]

Gmail does this when it says "Sending.." or "working.." even when
you scroll down the page the little box stays top and center.
Perfectly smooth.

How is this done?

http://www . comodo . com/ is an example of a site that does this
(lower right).

Well for that particular example, look at their source and see for
yourself.

Otherwise use CSS and position:fixed; Clean, simple, pretty good
browser support these days.

To remain on topic for the ng and also pretend that ancient browsers
are still important, then it can be done with some trivial JavaScript
too. Web search for it.

Hopefully with CSS position:fixed, and not with client-side scripting
(at least not for IE 7+). RTSL.

Great idea making it difficult for people to go there ...
