What if my window is less than 500px high?

Like many people, I find having to scroll sections of a page
annoying, but you can do it with: overflow: auto;

Thanks very much.

Any ideas on how to make the left-nav always fill the height of the
content div and not overflow out the bottom of it.
Also, any ideas how to make the right background image (silhouette
jumping) show in full, as at the moment it only shows to the bottom of
where the text runs.

Equally as bad is when the window is much more than 500px high. Mine is
usually around 1100px.

So I get a huge amount of nothing down at the bottom of the viewport,
with a little tiny scrolling content box.

What a waste. :-\

Ok

I understand this website is not to your taste design wise, but the
question I'm asking is as quoted from above:

Any ideas on how to make the left-nav always fill the height of the
content div and not overflow out the bottom of it.
Also, any ideas how to make the right background image (silhouette
jumping) show in full, as at the moment it only shows to the bottom of
where the text runs.

Cheers
