Fixed Positioning in IE 6

* { margin:0; padding:0; }
html, body {
   height: 100%;
}
body #fixedElement {
   position:fixed !important;
   position: absolute; /*ie6 and above*/
   top: 0;
   right: 0;
}
#page-wrap {
    width: 600px;
    margin: 0 auto;
    font: 16px/2 Georgia, Serif;
}

The 100% height on the body and html stuff is in case you want to do fixed positioning along the bottom edge of the browser window.

    or you do it over expressions.. like this:

    * html #element{
		position: absolute; left: 0px; top: 0px;
		left: expression( ( 0 + ( ignoreMe2 = document.documentElement.scrollLeft ? document.documentElement.scrollLeft : document.body.scrollLeft ) ) + 'px' );
		top: expression( ( 0 + ( ignoreMe = document.documentElement.scrollTop ? document.documentElement.scrollTop : document.body.scrollTop ) ) + 'px' );
}

    this is for position fixet on TOP

    It seems not working. Also, Is there any way to achieve the position:fixed effect for a div which have to be kept some distance from bottom , and not from top.

    Even, a jQuery solution will do. Thanks in advance.

    As FJ mentioned (10/25/2009) it is possible to do it with CSS expression, but with some extra hack to get a smooth scrolling:
