Google the hell out of this, i've seen it before but can't seem to find it now.

I'm looking a simple script that will take an image or div and have it move as the page scrolls up and down.

the image will probably be linked to another page.

do you want the div to animate at the page scrolls, or do you just want the div to stay in the same place on the screen?

just stay in the same place

So if its 100 px from the top then if you scroll down, id like it to stay 100 px from the top. Nothing fancy.

In CSS, it's just "position: fixed"

Though this won't work in IE6, nor other versions of IE unless you specify a doctype.

If you don't declare a DOCTYPE, you're not writing valid HTML anyway. ;P

The doctype issue comes up when you go "yo, lemme check that real quick"

<html>
<body>
<div style="position: fixed; left: 50px; top: 10px">aaaaaaa</div>
</body>
</html>

And then bang your head on a desk for 15 minutes when it doesn't work

im saying IE doesnt care about doctype, therefore doctype is optional.

If it works in IE, its production ready. Doctype or no.

although to be honest I would never dirty myself by touching unpure languages like html, css, javascript, or php.

Javascript is great, it's really funky, but it's by far the most powerful web tool out there.

I haven't written straight HTML in years, why would you when there are so many other tools that can generate it for you, like JSF.
