Hi,
If anyone could help me with what should be a fairly easy problem I’d really appreciate it, I’ve basically put together a site for myself using code I’ve found. It’s a vertical scrolling website with 4 div containers, the scrolling is managed by jquery.easing.1.3.js. and jquery.min.js
Everything works perfectly when the side menu is set to scroll with the div containers, but I want to fix it to the browser frame. When I do this the top link becomes inactive?
Below is the code and images, if anyone cares to take a look I’d be eternally grateful!
Thanks
Rob
