scroll event

Is there an OnScroll event for window in Netscape? If there is , how to know
the offset? For example, in IE there is the document.body.scrollTop

It doesn't appear so, though it is listed in the Gecko DOM Reference
(<URL:http://www.mozilla.org/docs/dom/domref/>).

Out of curiosity, why do you want to know? If it's to keep something in a
fixed position, consider using CSS. IE doesn't support "position: fixed",
so you'll still need to script a fix for that, but it's a better solution.
I've got an example from last month, if you're interested.

There is also a discussion of it on:

Thanks. I hadn't bothered reading that particular thread, though you did
confuse me for a minute: it was actually started on the 14th though for
you, it was around 0225 on the 15th.

I don't know if I like the suggested hack on the DevNull site as it
requires quirks-mode inducing HTML (if the latter of the two solutions is
chosen).
