I'm sure that I've found something before that allows an image to be floated in view when a page is scrolled up and down.

Does this ring a bell with anyone, do you have an example?

Thanks,

You can achieve this via CSS by giving the image a CSS attribute: position:fixed;
or in the tag itself:

<img src="path/to/img.jpg" width="40" height="40" style="position:fixed;">

Unfortunately, while this is part of the WC3 standards, IE5 and IE6 don't support this. So that unless your developing specifically for a browser that does support it, you'll have to find an alternative with the help of javascript.

Googling for 'javascript scroll' should get you some results.

Thanks for that, I'll try it.
