Fixed will not work in IE. It will scroll out of view if you scroll the
page.
See the bottom of org.css on how add the `absolute' positioning for IE
only (the simple way...). [2]

Good, I heard that before. I guess it was IE 5 or something. Don't how
the MAC version of IE is (crap I guess).
It looks good and works (Linux FF 3 and Opera 10).

[1] Actually, the position is choosen relative (default) or absolute to
the next parent, that has a non-default `position'. This works in
all browsers.
Example:
<div style="position:relative;"> <!-- nothing special, but rules -->
<div style="position:absolute; top:-10px; right:-10px">
<!-- close link and icon here -->
</div>
</div>
It's important, to add _no_ padding and _no_ margin to the elements
meant for positioning. Paddings and margins are handled
differently. IE does it all wrong then.
[2] This here might work (not sure if this works, if we position the img
though. Maybe we'll have to position the link and use
display:block;):
* html a.logo-link {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
width: 190px;
height: 190px;
}
