Not all browsers support stylesheets and Div's.

Also IMHO frames should be banned...

Alan,

Not every browser supports frames, no.
Frames seem like a good idea, but can be a right PITA at time :-(

You can achieve the same effect as follows:

<table height="100%">
<tr>
<td valign="top" height="1"><Content that you
want to keep
static></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<div style="overflow:auto;height:100%">
<Content that you want to scroll>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

You can put whatever you like in the static TD or the scrolling DIV - the
key
thing is to adjust the height of the 1st TD to whatever fixed size you
require,
and to keep the table height at 100%, and keep the DIV style as is.

HTH,

Tony
