I'm working on a script that will allow ie to kind of emulate the css
position:fixed; css attribute. (Code follows) My problem is figuring
out the height of the _content_ of the div, rather than the height of
the div itself. Currently my script doesn't function properly if you
resize your browser window to make it larger.
function pretendFixed() {
if ((typeof(el.nodeType) != "undefined") && (el.nodeType == 1)) {
var winHeight = 0;
if (typeof(window.innerHeight) == 'number') {
winHeight = window.innerHeight;
} else {
if (document.documentElement &&
document.documentElement.clientHeight) {
winHeight = document.documentElement.clientHeight;
} else {
if (document.body && document.body.clientHeight) {
winHeight = document.body.clientHeight;
}
}
}
var newElHeight = el.offsetHeight;
if (winHeight < (el.offsetTop + el.offsetHeight)) {
newElHeight = winHeight - (el.offsetTop + 10);
if (el.style) {
el.style.height = newElHeight + "px";
el.style.overflow = "scroll";
}
}
}
}
