While this layout may be "simple and basic" aesthetically, programmatically, it is not: CSS allows for the rendering of element style on the fly. There is no way for the browser to know the height of the middle section while it is rendering the header section of your layout. Likewise for the footer and the middle section. At best, any configuration will be fragile in a cross browser setting. You could increase its robustness if you used known heights for the header and footer, which I gather is not something you want. If I were asked to code this for a client, I'd use a simple JavaScript, which could accomplish it quite easily. You might also find some answers in a search for CSS Frames or CSS Sticky Footer.
