i would like to make a layout that goes something like this...
i have a banner and a sidebar that remain fixed no matter what the body data
is... weather this floats or whatever it don't matter but the banner and
sidebar have links

the body has data, pics, text etc. and scrolls independant of the banner and
sidebar.

i could use frames for the whole thing but then it screwes up hyperlink
connections and alot of other stuff yer all aware of. how can i get my body
to scroll while leaving other stuff to stay in place... or is it not even
possible... if i could write code i would write some to make it possible...
but i just read HTML only. help or other possabilities are appreciated.
 
Your only option other then a frameset is to use an IFrame, and it also has limitations.

As a second thought, you may also be able to do this with CSS layers.

You can, but it's not fully browser compatible across the board.

A layer can have position:fixed, which would do the job *if it were
completely supported*.

On the other hand, why worry so much about this "always in view" thing.
It's rather arbitrary in my opinion. Keep your pages short so that scroll
distances are small, and your visitors will be just fine.
