Real quickie answer, and not a whole lot better than STFW but when I was
researching my recent question, I came across some property which deals
exactly with that i.e. it enables you to find the absolute co-ords of the
current real top left corner of a scrolled page, and then you move the layer
appropriately. Sorry to not be of more help, but at least know you know it's
out there :-)
