Thanks - I've gotten good direct info from the list members on using php/SSI (include) for doing this, but my web needs to be both live on a server and viewable without hosting (off a CD, disk, etc).
I realized soon after putting out the last email that iframes aren't really involved in the issue at all, and the same problem occurs without it included in the content div. The simple problem is that on a 100% height layout with header, content and footer, there seems to be no way to make the content div expand vertically to fill the space left between header and footer in the browser window? The wrapper div can be set to 100%, the header and footer to specific heights, but setting the content div to 100% makes it use the actual full browser height, not the "100%" left in between the header and footer. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Zoe M.

You can create a scrolling area of a page with CSS, but that scrolling area can't show a separate HTML document within it. Please see http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=OffTopic for other lists you can use to get ideas on how to use iframes or alternate programming methods to achieve the effect you are looking for.
