Q515 How can I force a layer to stay at the bottom of the browser window (Netscape Navigator 4), whenever this window is maximized, or resized?

You'll possibly need to invoke the onResize event handler to first reload the page:

<body onResize="location.reload()">

To position a layer in a certain position on the screen you'll need to use code similar to:

<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript"><!--
function pageOffset() {
    document.layers['layerName'].pageX = window.innerWidth - 150;
    document.layers['layerName'].pageY = window.innerHeight - 50;
}
//--></script>
</head>

<body onLoad="pageOffset()" onResize="location.reload()">

<layer name="layerName" left="10" top="10">Some content in here</layer>

</body>
</html>
