With some code you'll get a more accurate response :D

Sure, here's my CSS:

Code:

.body_main {
	background:#FFFFFF;
	margin-top: 200px;
	width: 1024px;
	height: 500px;
	margin: auto;
	padding: 5px 5px 5px 5px;
	border: 1px solid #CCCCCC;
}

Then I create the main DIV container like this:

Code:

<div class="body_main"></div>

So when there is a lot of content, it just flows pass the height that I set at 500px. I don't want the content to be hidden or flow pass the div container, I'd like it to stretch the height as much as it needs to for it's content.

I haven't tried Tanax's tip yet but I will today...
