    Fixing a Table of Contents Menu, when contents Scroll

    I wish to create a standard 3 column CSS page, but my centre contents
    column is quite long. I have included Anchor Name Tags in the long
    column and provided a navigation / Table of contents in the left
    column.

    Is it possible to have the Table of contents displayed, regardless of
    the scroll position of the page.

    I would like a similar requirement for the right column, which will
    have other information.

    This I hope will provide, access to all parts of the website, from any
    current view of the page.

    I hope I have explained this correctly and someone may be able to
    point me to a solution.

    Regards

    Richard

      You said it in your subject line. Fixed.

      Specifically position: fixed;

          It may not be so obvious how to make two columns stay put even after you
          learn about fixed position. Perhaps this might promote an idea for you:

          <http://netweaver.com.a u/threeCols/fixed_both_side s.html>

          Seems to work on all my Mac browsers (except IE)

          (In knocking this one, I noticed a curiosity that my Opera ignores
          min-width on body).

          There is probably simpler. You should know that Windows IE 6 does not do
          fixed and you will need some workarounds for which you better Google up.

          You might find

          helpful, I don't know in the case of three cols...
