fixed positioning does not work with Internet Explorer 6

[John Fitzgibbon]

Hi,

 

I am trying to create a side bar that will function like a navigation
page within a frame. I am trying to fix its position within the viewport
so that it remains visible irrespective of how the page is scrolled. I
thought the way to do this would be to use a style sheet to set position
to fixed like so

 

sidebar {position:fixed; top:0%; left:0%;}

 

but this does not seem to work. The element is not fixed on the page. It
disappears when I scroll down the page.

 

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

 

Regards

John
