Hi

im building a webpage and i want to put an image at the bottom of the screen - not the bottom of the page - and when we scroll down the page the image stays at the bottom of the browser screen

anyone know how i do that ?

thanks

Little CSS magic.

body
{
background-image:url('smiley.gif');
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-attachment:fixed;
background-position:bottom;
}

Check out CSS positioning and using the "static" option.

a different bit of CSS magic :

CSS:

#bottom-div {
    position : static;
    bottom : 0px;
    height : 100px;
    width : 100&#37;;
}

HTML :

<div id="bottom">Look at me! I'm at the bottom!</div>

...a little bit more flexible than aidan_walsh's example, I think (you can ensure that it sits above the content, for one thing)... but both have similar results.
