Emulate frames behaviour
I woul like to have 3 divs:
top: is the header and it should be always visible
left: is the menu and it should be always visible
content: may scroll without hiding top and left div...
is it possible?

You mean make your content unbookmarkable and lack necessary links when
reached through a search engine? ;)

Yes and no.

The simplest way to accomplish this is position: fixed. But IE doesn't
support it. Why, I don't know. Ask them.

If you're content with this working in every CSS browser other than IE,
that's how you do it, but you must code it so it degrades OK in IE.

Someone else told me recently that he wanted that sort of layout,
because "that's what most of our customers are used to". I checked out
15 sites belonging to his customers, prospects and competitors - in fact
just 1 out of the 15 had a non-scrolling header and/or sidebar. He took
the point.

Yes, it is possible. Whether or not it is wise, I leave that up to you.

See example on

Just ignore the Dutch text and study the mark-up and the CSS.
