Answer 1

Those are fine according to quirksmode.org.

Answer 2

fixed didn't work in IE6, but in my experience is fine since 7.

Quirksmode.org has one caveat:

In IE7, if you select "absolute" or "fixed" and then "relative", most of the layer’s content doesn’t show.

Answer 3

Here is another website that can help you to know more about the compatibility.

Answer 4

Note that IE 7 from beta 2 upwards does support position: fixed; (if you use a document type declaration that triggers strict mode)
