Then make an image like this:http://www.w3.org/Style/dogsear.png and put it in the bottom right of the list. Give the list a height and some left padding. Make sure you make the backgrounds of the ul and the li's the appropriate colours.
And the DIV whose class="name" would be 'fixed' to whatever position coordinates you instruct it (none shown in example).
This doesn't work effectively in all browsers and is a bit jumpy at best, when you do get it to work.
There is a longer way to acheive this so that it works in non-IE, a bit too long to post here (and it's not my work, but would share it via e-mail if you want it).
Useful for positioning a navigation list to the left-side of the page and having it stay in the same spot even if the visitor scrolls the page... it this what you're looking for?

'position:fixed;' works fine in good browsers. It's not jumpy at all. It doesn't work in IE6 because IE's a bit crap. It will work in IE7 though. You can fix it for IE with javascript, but that tends to be jumpy. There are other ways to do it too that involve hiding scrollbars and such. Here's an example... http://bonrouge.com/test/fixed.htm
