floating boxes over design, for ads or email opt ins? how do you do them?

Is there a section of code someone could show me, javascript or something i'm assuming? i don't even know what they are called to google something like this. any hints? thanks in advance...

 

CSS:

div.float {
  float: left;
  width: 120px;
  padding: 10px;
  }

Code (markup):

<div class="float">
  <img src="image1.gif">
</div>

Code (markup):

PM me if you need extra help.

 

float should only align a block element next to another element. If I'm not mistaken hes referring to the boxes (block elements) that hover above other elements and to accomplish this I suggest looking into giving the element you want hover :

position:absolute;
now actually position the box with:
top:0px;
left:0px or right:0px;
Now the sorta tricky part is locating the box center in the screen ... this is easily done with javascript (google: javascript viewport height)

If this isnt what you were asking ignore me

 

i'm talking like the box that slides down here http://www.cbkprofitmachine.com/

for the opt-in signup

 

That is javascript.

 

aye then my suggestion is correct to move it and position it use javascript to adjust top left or right.

 

what would the appropriate javascript to use be?

 

Im not going to write it but there are quite a few examples of moving block elements with javascript or you can look at libraries such as script.aculo.us

I suggest a little googling, if you write something and have problems I will look over it

 

that's all i needed, thank you, will commence googling. i didn't even know what i was supposed to be googling for...

 

One better try "javascript moving elements" Or "javascript animation"
