MS,

The Ext Viewport doesn't work in this fashion (that's the underlying 
component of cflayout). The Viewport will only take up the viewable area 
of the browser, with the 'center' view always taking up the remaining 
space (only area that doesn't require explicit dimensions).

What you need is straight HTML and CSS. I would suggest you look at the 
Three Column Layout (flanking menus) in The Layout Reservoir of 
BlueRobot.com
