Hi Sid,

I don't think you can do it easily.
A div can only float over the rectangle that a window is.
If you need to show it over multiple windows (frames) you'll have a
difficult task ahead to figure out how much of the floating div is
visible in window1, and make the rest appear in window2, or even also
window3.

This can be done, but you'll need a lot of communication between the
windows to pass this info around, AND you need to figure out how much of
the div is visible in window1, then create the same div in window2, and
figure out WHERE to float that one.
Sounds difficult, but can be done in principle I think.

Regards,
Erwin Moller

Ok, the situation is as follows: I defined a <DIV> like: <div id="myid" style="position: absolute; height: 10; width: 10;"><img src="images/object.gif" height=10 width=10></div> This pane is used to move an object around on the web page by a javascript. As long as I define no further <div> pane everything works fine.

I have had great success with using <iframe> with overflow-y set to auto. I can get a similar look with the <iframe> tag. BUT... In all cases I need to have fixed heights. Is there a way to put either tag inside an HTML <TD> and have the same kind of scrolling effect. This would allow me to fill the screen and have the size of the scrolling box change on resize. Thanks in advance.

I have a web form with a <div> section ... I have it setup so the Update/Cancel buttons are fixed at the bottom of the screen while the content of the form is in the <div> and scrolls.

1. Horizontal centering a <divin browser window. The current trend seems to be to place page content in a fixed width area in the middle of the browser window. How is this achieved? If I use a top level <divthen I can place it with CSS attribute 'left:', but this is a fixed offset. Is it possible to have a <divcentered in the browser window? 2. Verticle centering in <div>

Hi, I'm trying to use the Visibility Style attribute for a Div to effectively PopUp a lightweight window with some additional context-sensitive information, when a user mouses over a given field(s). The popping-up seems to work just fine; it's the tearing down that's giving me grief. If I stick a onmouseout event on the same input field that caused the onmouseover/pop-up, it starts to flicker 'cos the <divis placed for esthetically...
