It's similar to what I've got now but it's all done with CSS, which is good, but is bad...
I'll start with a little problem, how do I get that bar at the bottom to be at the bottom of the page, not just the window. It's got to be something with placing it in respect to the bottom of the main window but I'm not sure how to do it...
I also tried to put the box underneath the menu but when you make the text bigger the menu spaces out more meaning the bottom two bits dissappear behind the window! How can I get it to move when the bottom of that menu moves too?
I' still working and playing about with it but that's the main problem that I've got. I'll probably sort the others myself.
Sorry if you don't understand, I'm in a rush, I'll explain better tomorrow if I have to...

I've sorted it now, thanks.
I just had to put them both in a div.

Just to get an idea, was this the type of layout for the bottom segment you were trying to achieve??

I'm having a look at this as you read this, just so you don't think I've ignored it.
But just quickly, you should place your right hand menu within its own

OK, thanks, I'll give it a go...
Hi
Somehow you need to make the "mainbox" and "bottomleft" divs both part of the same container (e.g another div), so that the bottomleft section floats below the mainbox. Make the two inner divs "relative" positioned inside the bigger container.
I don't see a way with absolute positioning like you've got it. My CSS manual talks about a "bottom" parameter for an element, and I think this would allow you to position the element (say) 10px up from the bottom of the page body, but thats not what you want.

OK, I've defined the bottom bar by pixels from the top so that it aligns how I would want it to when I fix it. Look at it in 1024x768 for how it's meant to look.
As you can see, it's about 10 odd pixels from the bottom of the main div and at the moment, it's perfect.
Unfortunatly, I can't do this as that div in the middle will have different content in it on each page and sit will vary in height. I want to know if somehow I can place that div at the bottom so that no matter how big the middle div is, the div at the bottom will stay 10 or so pixels away from the bottom of the main div.
Do you see what I mean now? So no matter how big that middle div is, the one at the bottom will always be 10 pixels away from the bottom of the main div.
As per usual, I'm probably being mega awkward and causing a lot of problems when it's probably very simple!
Thanks.

That's what I want, but when I put the code at the end of the page, because the divs are, well, 'floating,' the code just gets placed underneath the divs right at the top.
Am I still being confusing?

Have a look at: http://www.skyzyx.com/archives/000094.php this is the one to use and the version I am using now. Very simple to set up, doesn't affect your machine in anyway and to be honest, it rocks! Running this system at work

You mean like a frame would, so the content of the main area would scroll behind it??
