[Slightly OT] CSS or Javascript for a web page div that ignores vertical scrolling?

[Keith Clarke]

Ah great - thanks Mark! I ignored the obvious as I thought position was just about relative positioning within nested containers, but you seeded my Google search perfectly http://www.w3.org/Style/Examples/007/menus
