[Javascript] stationary buttons

[Chris Tifer]

I don't have the exact code, but first you have to detect when the page
scrolls. Fire an event that determines how far it scrolled (using some form
of offset) and place your button there. Once you get a little further, if
you have syntax problems, let us know where. We can help.
