HTML document.body.scrollTop question

=?Utf-8?B?SGFyZHkgV2FuZw==?=

Hi all,
I created a complex ASPX page, nested inside a master page and Ajax
UpdatePanel. In one of my Javascript function I need to capture mouse
position. I use alert(document.body.scrollTop) to test scroll bar position.
Even though I have a long scroll bar and already to end of the page, when I
call this function, I always get "0" as document.body.scrollTop.

Meanwhile I created a very simple HTML page with a lot of <brto test, it
works fine. I tried both IE6 and IE7, no luck at all.

My question is under what situation document.body.scrollTop always returns 0
in IE?

After some tries, if I remove

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Then it works fine! Any idea how can I make it work with XHTML 1.0?
