Move status bar to bottom?

Is it possible/advisable to move the CRG status bar to the bottom of the windows rather than where it sits at the top by default? Custom CSS?

Re: Move status bar to bottom?

Not advisable. On iOS, the bottom is not page-interactive; tapping low in the window simply recalls the browser interface. For this reason, we keep all interactive elements at the top, and only put non-interactive elements (i.e. captions) at the viewport's bottom.

Re: Move status bar to bottom?

Can it be made to float below the navigation area but stick to the top of the windows when the user scrolls down? Having it appear above the navigation area just seems weird to me ...

Re: Move status bar to bottom?

Well, you're in luck in a way. The status-bar div occurs immediately following navigation in the source code. So using custom CSS, you can very easily override it's fixed position so that it will fall beneath your navigation.

If you want to have it float when scrolled past, then some simply Javascript to detect the page's scroll position and apply a class to restore the fixed position would probably work.
