Summary: Static Button Menu appears out of view
Description:

I'm using the Menu Button. Normally the menu appears below the button if there's room for it and above if not (if the button is near the bottom of the view).

When the button is placed on a fixed (position:fixed) container, the menu doesn't always align correctly, however. If the container is near the bottom of the window and the window is scrolled a bit
down, the menu may appear below the menu - even though it should appear above. Tested in Safari 3.0.4 and Firefox 2.0.0.12. In Opera 9.26 the menu even may appear over the button.

I have made a simple test-case to demonstrate this:

I looked into this one. Turns out Dom 2.x doesn't yet have solid support for fixed positioning which will be necessary for getting this one fixed.

Depended on bug #2525972 which is now fixed.

(note - some of the positioning changes have been ported back to 2.x so this may now be fixable in both code lines. per your investigation...)
