Tutorial 24: Fixing Frames with Fixed Positioning
Up until now, the recommendation I've given every person asking me
how to solve the problems with their framed pages is "don't use
frames." This is a good recommendation and I still stand by
it. However, we now have an alternative that you can use instead: CSS
fixed positioning.
Fixed positioning allows you to take sections of your document,
remove them from the document flow, and make them always stay visible,
so that they don't scroll around with the rest of the document. As you
shall soon find out, this is a much more elegant and problem-free way
of achieving the same effects that we have used HTML Frames for up
until now.
