Description
The supportsFixed test returns positive for MobileSafari. Although MobileSafari does in a sense support fixed positioning, the practical reality is that the shadowbox appears off screen when the user is scrolled down. I believe that modifying the supportsFixed feature test to return false for MobileSafari would rectify this issue.
