Hello,
Using javascript; can't remember the exact properties that tell you this, but there are values for determining the screen height using javascript.
Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

Try something like this:
<script type="text/javascript">
var menu = document.getElementById("menu");
function refreshMenu()
{
menu.style.top = screen.height - 150;
menu.style.left = screen.width - 150;
}
setTimeout("refreshMenu()",1);
</script>
<div id="menu" style="width:100;height:100;background-color:black"></div>
If this works correctly, a black box will scroll with the scroll bar in the bottom-right of the page.

I assume you want fixed positioning. You don't have to use JavaScript to accomplish this.
Use CSS:
div {
position: fixed;
left: 0;
right: 0;
}
<div>
This div is fixed in place as the page scrolls.
</div>
This doesn't work in IE on its own, for IE you'll need the IE7 style sheet. http://dean.edwards.name/IE7

friends, u got wrong way. first of all, i don't want2fix the <DIV>, it looks very monotonous! and: if i use above javscript code, <DIV> scrolls opposite to direction of scroll-bar. this is not a solution, at all. u know: we h've2use document.body.clientHeight, document.body.scrollTop etc., with setTimeout()
but i don't know how2write it myself. finally, a smooth scroll of <DIV> exactly corresponding to scroll-bar scroll is desired.

Hello,
If you specify a height, and the overflow attribute, you can get the scrollbars to appear. I imagine that you've done this, or done something similar to this to get the scrollbar working. Below are the attributes I set for a div to have scrollbars appear.
HEIGHT: 150px;
OVERFLOW-Y: scroll
The overflow sets the axis that will scroll. However, to get the total size of the browser, I'm not sure why you think the other's code as a fix; wouldn't you have to do something similar anyway to determine these attributes?

Actually it would be better to use overflow: auto; since overflow-y is an IE proprietary property. Its proposed for inclusion in CSS 3 but no one else has picked it up yet. Often times overflow: auto; will generate the desired effect anyway.
HTH!

var initpos, scroll, newpos, str;
function initScroll(menu) {
str=eval('menu');
initpos=parseInt(
document.getElementById(str).style.top);
}
function scrollMenu(menu) {
scroll=parseInt(document.body.scrollTop);
newpos=pos+scroll;
str=eval('menu');
document.getElementById(menu).style.top=newpos;
str=eval('menu');
setTimeout("stay(str)",100);
}
now u just need2call functions externally
initScroll('scrollMenu');
scrollMenu('scrollMenu');
this is working in all browsers i use.
do few corrections, if i've typed hurrily.
code that i'd seen 2weeks before on internet is horrible- some 100 lines

4Netscape family corresponding property is 'pageYOffset' lieu 'document.body.scrollTop' that works4 MSIE. We need if..else or seperate function body4this distinction.
setTimeout("scrollMenu(str)",100);
is one correction i do now.
there may b more typing mistakes.
