CSS: Help my menulinks doesnt stay at the same place

Help! This is my menu. I want it to stay at the same place, so if you resize it or drag the browser it shouldnt follow the browser and move the menu to the side

<div id="mainmenu" style="position: relative;">
<div id="menuLinks" style="position: absolute; right: 70px; top: 10px; ">
<a href="home.php">HEM</a>
<a href="#">PROFILER</a>
<a href="#">BILDER</a>
&开发者_JS百科lt;a href="#">DISKOTEKER</a>
<a href="#">EVENTS</a>
<a href="#" class="menu_class">KONTROLLPANEL</a>
</div>

This works only if i change the div mainmenu line to:

<div id="mainmenu" style="position: relative; width: 1200px;">

(giving a width: ) then it stays at the place. But I do not want to specify width, because then it will end too early for some other screen resolutions and so..

How can i fix this?

Use position: absolute; for a fixed position within the document (will move scrolling the page).

Use position: fixed for a fixed position in the browser window. (won't move when scrolling the page)

In both cases, use left and top to specify the starting position.

You won't need to specify a width in either case.

position: fixed won't work in IE 6.

You can use position absolute and set the left attribute to whatever you measure it out to be and drop the right attribute.

But a better solution may be to use floating divs. It's impossible to tell though without looking at the rest of your code.
