hey all,

gotta love all teh CSS questions, eh? i know the benefits over tables, but it sure is annoying to learn 😛

here’s my layout. I’ve got 3 iframes, one for the header, one on the left for navigation and a content one.  
What i want is to have the content one stretch down to fill the frame vertically. However, i can’t use height:100% because it’s sitting underneath the header so it’d have to be somehting like height:100%-150px which you obviously can’t do. Is there anything i can do or must i just decide on a height which’ll fit into most browsers at 800 x 600 and let it look really weird and chopped off for larger resolutions?

thanks a heap
