Adding a <div> that sits above the page

[j.volk]

Hello,

I am trying to create a custom

for displaying links above the header of my page. I currently have added a

to the header.tpl file which works out nicely, but would like to have a

that's independent of the header and page attributes (like having the possibility of full-width and transparent background)

Thanks in advance for any help with this.
