hello, i need your help with div positioning into a page. i have the below divs:

- the header with z-index 10, position absolute, top 0, height 250px, width 100%
- wrapper with margin 0 auto, width 990 and inside
- the menu with z-index 8
- content to the right of the menu with z-index 9 so that i could scroll it below the header.

the problem is that i want the menu to have fixed position and this is not possible cause it is not working for the x-axis as it gets outside wrapper. The code is a little messy right now, but i would like to use menu items to scroll the big colored boxes, below header.

Any ideas?

thanks Sot

What you want is possible, but it depends on your css for all related elements... html, body, etc...

Can you post your code or provide a link?

With your image, this is a working example:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"&gt;

<html lang="pt" dir="ltr">

  <head>
    <title>Fixed Menu and Header - Scrolling Content</title>

        <meta HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">

        <style type="text/css">
            html, body{margin:0;padding:0;width:100%;height:100%;}
            div.header {position:fixed;top:0;left:0;z-index:1;width:100%;height:200px;background-color:#787878;}
            div.menu {position:fixed;left:20px;top:220px;width:200px;height:350px;background-color:#9abd63;}
            div.wrapper{float:left;padding-left:260px;padding-top:220px;}
            div.blocks{width:600px;height:300px;margin:5px;}
            div#block1{background-color:#d9c548;}
            div#block2{background-color:#7e4041;}
            div#block3{background-color:#d9c548;}
            div#block4{background-color:#7e4041;}
            div#block5{background-color:#d9c548;}
            div#block6{background-color:#7e4041;}
            div#block7{background-color:#d9c548;}
        </style>

    </head>

    <body>

        <div class="header">This is the Header</div>
        <div class="menu">
            <ul>
                <li>Menu Opt 01</li>
                <li>Menu Opt 02</li>
                <li>Menu Opt 03</li>
                <li>Menu Opt 04</li>
                <li>Menu Opt 05</li>
                <li>Menu Opt 06</li>
                <li>Menu Opt 07</li>
            </ul>
        </div>
        <div class="wrapper">
            <div class="blocks" id="block1">Block 01</div>
            <div class="blocks" id="block2">Block 02</div>
            <div class="blocks" id="block3">Block 03</div>
            <div class="blocks" id="block4">Block 04</div>
            <div class="blocks" id="block5">Block 05</div>
            <div class="blocks" id="block6">Block 06</div>
            <div class="blocks" id="block7">Block 07</div>
        </div>

    </body>
</html>

Just copy and past, it's tested! Hope it helps!
