this is pretty hard to explain, but..
At the bottom of every web page in our application, there is a navigation bar that allows the user to do certain things (like back, continue, save, etc). It is in a statically positioned layer. Also there are certain buttons unique to a certain page where we have problems. The problem is that sometimes if the right amount of data is present in the tables at the top of the page, the buttons get pushed down so that they are on the same row (the nav bar is about 50 px high) as the nav bar, which means that these buttons can't be clicked, becuase the layer spans the whole width of the page and covers up the buttons. is there any way to detect how far down the screen the &quot;current position&quot; is, so that We can put some br's in to make the buttons go below the nav bar [sig]<p>ray<br><a href=mailto:rheindl@bju.edu>rheindl@bju.edu</a><br><a href= > </a><br> [/sig]
 
If the table is generated dynamically then place the buttons (navigation bar) in the last row of the table so that the buttons are always present just below the table irresepective of the amount of data present in the table.
