I think I misunderstood the question. I don't know how to make it go by the entire scrolling area when setting a position, rather than just the viewable area of the window. Maybe you could set the position of the copyright div relative to the divs that are above it, instead of absolute to the window. Or make one huge div to contain the entire layout, and put some of them aligned to the top, and the copyright one aligned to the bottom. I don't think absolute positioning is going to work. But I'm no CSS expert unfortunately.
