So you want a scrolling center section so that the page always has a fixed
height? 
Is that what you mean? 
The type of layout you appear to be using is called a 'letterbox' which
reached its peak of popularity in the late 90s.

Shudder, sorry but I really dislike having a limited box that scrolls sized
for an 800x600 window since that means your content area can at most be
around 300px high by the time you allow for browser chrome, toolbars,
address bars, the masthead and footer areas. Yet you can't assume your
visitors will have higher resolution browsers because people on higher
resolution monitors tend not to browse full screen or have sidebars open,
etc.

OK, I mean "always visible". If it's just at the bottom of the page it's
only there when you scroll all the way down. If the footer is always visible
there's always navigation, even in the middle of a very long page. Jen
