If I understand you correct, you want some sort of a floating menu.
But beware things that float, you have been warned! LOLOL
Floating ads can be very annoying and there are methods,
software for 'killing' those floating ads
This will scroll on your left side of the screen, and is a very small box.
You can change colors and size to suit your needs.
I got this from
Dynamic Drive and they are using deprecated HTML tags and does the styling in HTML, but it works.
You can replace the text with images and/or links if you like
Code:
<script>
if (!document.layers)
document.write('<div id="divStayTopLeft" style="position:absolute">')
</script>
<layer id="divStayTopLeft">
<!--EDIT BELOW CODE TO YOUR OWN MENU-->
<table border="1" width="130" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td width="100%" bgcolor="#FFFFCC">
<p align="center"><b><font size="4">Menu</font></b></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="100%" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<p align="left"> Testlink<br>
See if this floats when<br/>
you scroll on your page
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<!--END OF EDIT-->
</layer>
<script type="text/javascript">

//Enter "frombottom" or "fromtop"
var verticalpos="frombottom"
if (!document.layers)
document.write('</div>')
function JSFX_FloatTopDiv()
{
var startX = 3,
startY = 150;
var ns = (navigator.appName.indexOf("Netscape") != -1);
var d = document;
function ml(id)

var el=d.getElementById?d.getElementById(id):d.all?d.all[id]:d.layers[id];
if(d.layers)el.style=el;
el.sP=function(x,y){this.style.left=x;this.style.top=y;};
el.x = startX;
if (verticalpos=="fromtop")
el.y = startY;
else{
el.y = ns ? pageYOffset + innerHeight : document.body.scrollTop + document.body.clientHeight;
el.y -= startY;
}
return el;
}
window.stayTopLeft=function()

var pY = ns ? pageYOffset : document.body.scrollTop;
ftlObj.y += (pY + startY - ftlObj.y)/8;
}
else{
var pY = ns ? pageYOffset + innerHeight : document.body.scrollTop + document.body.clientHeight;
ftlObj.y += (pY - startY - ftlObj.y)/8;

ftlObj.sP(ftlObj.x, ftlObj.y);
