Divs & height

Hi guys, I got a small problem which is driving me mad.
I don't know if what I want to do is impossible or I am just overlooking
something stupid, in both cases I hope you will answer me.

I got a tableless 3 colums layout, container div is set to 100% height.
First column (id="newsbox") too is 100% height and it as 2 div inside; first
one(id="graphic "), is set with height on 350 pixel, second one (id="news")
contains an iframe.

The matter is: how can I manage to have the iframe taking all the remaing
height? If I give 100% height page became awfully long. I've tried some
hack too but with no success, and #graphic div has to be necessarily
350pixel high.
This is the page code:
<div id="newsbox">
<div id="graphic" ><img src="files/image.jpeg" width="230"
height="300"></div>
<div id="news" ><iframe src="news.php"> </iframe>
</div>
</div>
This is the CSS code:
#newsbox {
height: 100%;
width: 230px;
float: left;
border: none;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}
#graphic {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
border: none;
width: 230px;
clear: both;
height: 350px;
float: left;
}
#news {
width: 230px;
float: right;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
height: 100%;
}

At start both image and Iframe were inside #newsbox div, with just the same
result.
Please help me.

Comments on your provided code:
You define the Height of the image to be 300 pixels for the image
itself, yet for the "graphic" container, you define its Height to be
350px. If you give the "graphic" also to be 300px, this should resolve
your problem regarding the iframe taking the remaining height of the column.

It seems that you have to give the Width Attribute directly to iframe.
I have no idea as to why you apply float:right to "news" if you want it
to be in the same column.

This is a totally trivial CSS problem, I'm sure, but I don't get it. I want a centered DIV with a fixed width between two other DIVs that should fill the rest of the window/viewport (= 100%). How do I achieve this? I tried width:auto for the buffer DIVs, but it didn't work. This should at least work in IE 5.5 and Opera. A totally standards-compliant solution would be appreciated, of course ... :/ This is waht I have:

This problem is everywhere! I have read all forums available, spent about 40+ hours on it and lost a bit of hair.
