This script:

function onscroll(){
    document.getElementById("divs").style.top=""+$('body').scrollTop()+"px";
}

Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/Hed2J/1/

Doesn't work on the latest Firefox version!

What am I doing wrong? :) Thanks for the help!

Edit: Edited with JSFiddle and full script :) as attached to an onscroll event
