Fixed page layout in IE6

Question

Fixed page layout in IE6

The header and footer and side panels have a fixed position. In the center is a content area with two scroll bars. There are no external scroll bars in the browser. I have a layout that works in IE7 and FF. I need to add support for IE6. How can I do this job?

Here is a rough example of my current CSS.

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html>

<head>
  <title>Layout</title>
  <style>
    * {
      margin: 0px;
      padding: 0px;
      border: 0px;
    }

    .sample-border {
      border: 1px solid black;
    }

    #header {
      position: absolute;
      top: 0px;
      left: 0px;
      right: 0px;
      height: 60px;
    }

    #left-sidebar {
      position: absolute;
      top: 65px;
      left: 0px;
      width: 220px;
      bottom: 110px;
    }

    #right-sidebar {
      position: absolute;
      top: 65px;
      right: 0px;
      width: 200px;
      bottom: 110px;
    }

    #footer {
      position: absolute;
      bottom: 0px;
      left: 0px;
      right: 0px;
      height: 105px;
    }

    @media screen {
      #content {
        position: absolute;
        top: 65px;
        left: 225px;
        bottom: 110px;
        right: 205px;
        overflow: auto;
      }
      body #left-sidebar,
      body #right-sidebar,
      body #header,
      body #footer,
      body #content {
        position: fixed;
      }
    }
  </style>
</head>

<body>
  <div id="header" class="sample-border"></div>
  <div id="left-sidebar" class="sample-border"></div>
  <div id="right-sidebar" class="sample-border"></div>
  <div id="content" class="sample-border"><img src="/broken.gif" style="display: block; width: 3000px; height: 3000px;" /></div>
  <div id="footer" class="sample-border"></div>
</body>

</html>

Add the following code to <head>

<!--[if lte IE 6]>
<style type="text/css">
html, body {
    height: 100%;
    overflow: auto;
}
.ie6fixed {
    position: absolute;
}
</style>
