Display problem - Githubissues

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Create a simple test case:

<style type="text/css">
body {margin:0px;padding:0px;}
.test 
{height:50px;background-color:green;position:fixed;width:400px;bottom:0px;}
</style> 

<div class="test">
test test test 
</div>

include jQuery and the plugin

do this:

$(document).ready(function(){  

         $(".test").fixedPosition({
            debug: true,
            fixedTo: "bottom",
            effect: "false"
         });

}); 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

a green bar 400px wide at the left of the screen fixed to the bottom. This is 
what I see with the above markup (not the script) in IE8 in standards mode and 
I am expecting to see exactly the same in IE8 in quirks mode.

Instead I see a faint green bar (about 70% opactity) 100% of the screen - 
though it is now fixed to the bottom.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

On IE8 on XP. Plugin does not appear to have a version. I downloaded it from 
google code on 2/12/2010.

Please provide any additional information below.

The bottom fix appears to work but it has distorted the display - adding an 
inline width the width of the screen and changing the color of the bar to a 
lighter green.
