iframes are not allowed in XHTML, you should use a php include or a javascript.

<?php include('yourfile.php'); ?>

NGP beat me to it, also CSS is just a way to make it aP (aesthetically pleasing) AKA pretty

It has nothing to do with content import like iframes and php includes

i think he wants a div with a scrollbar to put some text into without having to make a whole new page just for some text like u have to do with iframes and the layout wont expand because of the fixed size. if its that what u meant try this

<div style="width:150px; height:150px; z-index:1; overflow: auto;"></div>

to basically put everything together, this would be a PHP/CSS style "iframe"

<div style="width:150px; height:150px overflow:auto;">
<? include('filename.php'); ?>
</div>

Basically, you don't need the z-index thingy, and you can change the height and width to what ever you want. Also, there are close to 1k tutorials on how to do the php include thing, just search the the php coding's navigation section (example titles: "pages using ?id=blah", "navigation using includes", etc...).

like rc69 said, the z index isnt necessary, so here's how you would do it.

<div style="width:150px; height:150px overflow:auto;">
text goes here...
</div>

basically the same as rc's...
