Fixed.js problem... (scrolling page infinity)

Hi,

I decided that I want several div tags, which can not be slided with all content. I found fixed.js file and started to use it.

But now my page is scrolling to infinity! (in IE 6,7)

This is the fixed.js file:

// fixed.js: fix fixed positioning and fixed backgrounds in IE/Win
// version 1.8, 08-Aug-2003
// written by Andrew Clover <and@doxdesk.com>, use freely

var fixed_positions= new Array();
var fixed_backgrounds= new Array();
var fixed_viewport;
 
// Initialisation. Called when the <body> tag arrives. Set up viewport so the
// rest of the script knows we're going, and add a measurer div, used to detect
// font size changes and measure image sizes for backgrounds later   
 
function fixed_init() {
  fixed_viewport= (document.compatMode=='CSS1Compat') ?
    document.documentElement : document.body;
  var el= document.createElement('div');
  el.setAttribute('id', 'fixed-measure');

  el.style.setExpression('width', 'fixed_measureFont()');
  document.body.insertBefore(el, document.body.firstChild);

// for fixed features, if found add to our lists and set initial props

And this is the code that I use in html css:

For a start, have you tried mailing and@doxdesk.com?
It always makes more sense to ask the creators of JS libraries/utilities about any errors you face, rather than bulk pasting the code for someone in a forum to go through the whole of it and help you out.
