How To: Flexible Layout with fixed height on a Flash-like site?

Question

Hi,

my question: How could I create a page like this one with a flexible with? Is it possible or can't I do it because of the fixed height? I would really like to improve the site's usability. At the moment we get troubled with 800X600 browsers for example.

Of course the site is not yet finished but only a vague idea. Nevertheless I would be happy to hear your comments.

Thanks a lot, Thomas

So, you are looking for the content to stay centered in the browser window? You could do something like this with css and then add the div to your body:

body{height:100%;background-color:#eee} div{position:absolute;top:25%;bottom:25%;left:25%;right:25%;border:1px solid; width:800px; height:600px;}
