Is this really the case? I’d have thought you’d struggle to find a Windows machine without an additional toolbar and this doesn’t cater for the varying levels of toolbar chrome in different browsers.

How are concerns mostly behind us? You always need to be concerned about the fold so it’s never blindly “behind you.”

It did work, but it gave display issues in IE8. I can’t remember exactly what the issue was and I didn’t investigate further what was causing that. I do use respond.js in all my projects to bring MQ support in IE8 and below and perhaps respond.js couldn’t handle vertical MQ’s at that time.
