woo-hoo! cogs!
i was wondering where they were!
ok, as far as percentage based layers - the answer is no.
BUT, they way i usually get around it is by the position:relative tag.
that way, you put your layers where you want 'em.

Looks very good net... but for some reason the scroll bar on the right side of the window is greyed out, as if your page fit in the window, which for me it doesn't. So I'm just seeing the top of the cogs, and the words "we're" and "edge". Since the cogs are in a table cell and not part of the <body background>, and since it doesn't look like you have any code to disable the scrollbars, I would guess this is a side effect of your layers.

drakkor-
the cogs are the bg of a table set at the bottom of the page...i used a little css to get the scrollbar black but it doesn't need to scroll unless you are below 800x600 max...if you are say at 1024 max you should see all or at least most of the cogs...technically the cogs don't take up page space since they a bg of percentage based table...they're kinda nifty that way...

netmosis - looks nice, i still am not sure about how it is so "top and left", but chances are its not worth the effort to chage that....
one little cross compatibility issue - the dropdowns are full width in IE, but only as wide as the widest text in NS.
just thought you may want to know.
the quickest way i can think of fixing that is putting the menu items in tables with specified widths.
