I just don’t get it.
I got three simple rows for a website. Just those three:
<div style='height: 3000px; border: 10px dotted blue;'>
<div style='position: fixed; top: 100px; left: 100px; border: 2px dashed red; height: 100px; width: 100px;'></div>
</div>
Now can somebody please explain me, why the fixed inner div just does not stay where it is in Internet explorer? Works perfectly in Firefox…
Thank you for help!
In general: If something’s fishy in the way the Internet Explorer displays a web page, it might just be that it’s in quirks mode.
A lot of times this happens because the DTD (=doctype declaration) was forgotten.
Try adding a DTD as well as a proper html page structure and it will probably fix your problem.
Although it’s a Microsoft product, the Internet Explorer actually respects and follows standards if you do so as well.
