Can someone fix this watermark cut-n-past script by Paul Anderson to work with a Transitional Doctype

2008-06-04 05:16:05 AM
Apparently the Transitional Doctype kills this script because the script
does not make proper use of units like "px".
It works well without a doctype statement. But once someone adds a
transitional doctype, the js script no longer works.
Can someone familiar with javascript bring it up-to-date so that it works
with current doctypes and post it here for others to make use of?
The whole HTML document including the js scrip follows ( this was a footer
on a section of my comunity web site: I added the doctype and " " codes
to make a test platform of it);

Re:Can someone fix this watermark cut-n-past script by Paul Anderson to work with a Transitional Doctype

This revised version that I found does work with a transitional DocType
==============================================
<script type="text/javascript">
/*
Floating Menu script- Roy Whittle (www.javascript-fx.com/)
Script featured on/available at www.dynamicdrive.com/
This notice must stay intact for use
*/
//Enter "frombottom" or "fromtop"
var verticalpos="frombottom"
if (!document.layers)
document.write('</div>')
function iecompattest(){
return (document.compatMode && document.compatMode!="BackCompat")?
document.documentElement : document.body
}
function JSFX_FloatTopDiv()
{
var startX = 3,
startY = 480;
var ns = (navigator.appName.indexOf("Netscape") != -1);
var d = document;
function ml(id)
{
var el=d.getElementById?d.getElementById(id):d.all?d.all[id]:d.layers[id];
if(d.layers)el.style=el;
el.sP=function(x,y){this.style.left=x+"px";this.style.top=y+"px";};
el.x = startX;
if (verticalpos=="fromtop")
el.y = startY;
else{
el.y = ns ? pageYOffset + innerHeight : iecompattest().scrollTop +
iecompattest().clientHeight;
el.y -= startY;
}
return el;
}
window.stayTopLeft=function()
{
if (verticalpos=="fromtop"){
var pY = ns ? pageYOffset : document.body.scrollTop;
ftlObj.y += (pY + startY - ftlObj.y)/8;
}
else{
var pY = ns ? pageYOffset + innerHeight : iecompattest().scrollTop +
iecompattest().clientHeight;
ftlObj.y += (pY - startY - ftlObj.y)/8;
}
ftlObj.sP(ftlObj.x, ftlObj.y);
setTimeout("stayTopLeft()", 10);
}
ftlObj = ml("divStayTopLeft");
stayTopLeft();
}
JSFX_FloatTopDiv();
