IE6 Fixed Position Fix

Published in: CSS 

IE6 Doesn't recognize position: fixed. Here is a little hack to fix it. First you must set IE6 to standards mode. You do this by including a strict doctype in the page.

Once IE6 is in strict mode include the following in a conditional comment. Anything you want fixed, set as absolute. The example sticks an image to the bottom left corner.

Plain TextExpand 
  1. /* IE6 Fixed position fix */
  2. html, body {
  3. 	height: 100%;	
  4. 	overflow: auto; 
  5. 	}
  6. body #cornerImage {
  7. 	position: absolute;
  8. 	bottom: 0;
  9. 	}
