great links guys, thanks. I didn't know javascript could do so many things. I'm gonna dive in and figure this stuff out!

Ah, okay. Take a look at this page:

http://www.sivamdesign.com/scripts/navigate.html

Depending on exactly which of these best fits your design/menu system, 17, 20, 25 or 26 may be a good starting place.

thx for the speedy reply tim - but I guess I should have been more specific, although at first I wasn't sure how to describe this thing.

What I'm looking for is the same concept of what you described, but more flexible, and not just only for images. I meant, what is it when there's a 'spot' that stays in the same place, where I could put links, javascript, images, ads, or just about anything else?

Reason being, my site has a lot of text, and I want to make the navigation section easy to reach at all times. Instead of reading a whole page, and then having to scroll way back to the top for navigation links, the links and site announcement would always be in the browser's corner.

Do you know how to do that? TIA

It's sometimes referred to as a static background image. I believe this CSS will do it:

background-attachment: fixed;'
or something like this

background: url(<a href="http://www.google.com/intl/en/images/logo.gif" class="bb-url">http://www.google.com/intl/en/images/logo.gif</a>) top left no-repeat fixed;'
