Using CSS : Just change the following height/width attributes to suit your
needs. Hope that helps.

<table height="200" width="300" border="1">
  <tr>
    <td height="40" colspan="2">Header Area (Remove if desired)</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td width="100">Navigation (Remove if desired)</td>
    <td width="200">
      <div style="overflow:auto;width:200px;height:160px;">
           Fill this area with data and it will overflow (it will create a
scrollbar automatically for the data) ................
      </div></td>
  </tr>
</table>
