How to swim the top bar?

Question

I want to find a drupal theme that has a bar, such as the top Twitter bar, at http://dev.twitter.com that stays there. If not, how do I replicate a similar effect in Drupal 7?

Answer 1

You can also check out the excellent Bootstrap project. See here for more details. They call it the top bar. Alternatively, you can use Bootstrap as a starting point for a special Drupal theme if you want to see your own.

Answer 2

While I don’t know any Drupal themes, I know how to recreate the effect - to snap an element to the top of the viewport, use CSS position: fixed :

 #topbar { position: fixed; top: 0 } 

You probably also want to set an upper limit for the rest of your content so that it doesn't close it.
