I think i believe i know what you are after, What you want is straight
forward, but is a little long winded to achieve.
It has to be done in 2 x stages.
1. Design your web page where you wish to include your scrollable area to
only included your header / nav bar and any other info around the edges as
you wish, leaving a blank area in the required place for your scollable area
to fill.
2. Open a completley new seperate Publisher document, then i suggest you cut
& paste the other info from you master page to set the dimensions for your
blank area, then start to place your info for the scrollable area, once you
have finshed delete the info not required from this page that will not be
required in your new scrollable area, i.e your header / nav bar etc, i.e what
you have used to act as a page layout.
I suggest you save both orginal site & your seperate page with only your
scrollable area info to your documents as a normal publisher documents, so
you can make changes later.
3. Next you need to make an obsolute link, this is done by createing folders
on you server to link too, i.e this is where you will place your saved new
scrollable area.
4. To do this i will explain, firstly let me know if you are using XP or
Vista (slightly different ways), but basically you will need a log-on name
and password from your server provider, then create a path via your network
places to your space then add a new folder as you would in my documents, then
save you scrollable area page from your "My Documents" in to that folder,
making sure you remember the names you have given each folder & page for the
code below.
Hopefully you are still with me, what i am trying to say is, that i know of
no other way with Pub to have a scrollable area without combining 2 x
documents, 1 x will be the master 1 x will be your link.
5. Open your "scollable area" page from your documents then RE-SAVE as "file
type" single web page to your server, again i find it easier to save this to
my documents then open my server space then drag it in that way. but many
find following the "save as" path direct to your server easier
6. Next copy & paste this code and then insert into your "main" site by
choosing "insert" from the menu bar then choose HTML Code Fragment .
<IFRAME src=
http://www.yoursite.co.uk/foldername/pagename.mht"
width="700" height="800" hspace="0" vspace="0"
frameborder="0" scrolling="auto"></IFRAME>
5. You must fill in the links required in the code to link to your folders
on the server, also play around with the width / height in the code to fit
your window, also the beauty of html code fragment you can drag the code
around the page to fit, you will spend a little time using web preview to
make sure all fits OK.
6. Once you either use "web preview" or "publish to web", your scrollable
area will appear in the blank space you have left on the main page
automatically.
To make changes later, simply use the saved pub doc from your documents then
save again, you will see that this doc already exists, do you wish to replace
this "YES", bascially each time you make changes, over ride the updates by
resaving over the top of an existing file.
I have placed a link from my site, (Not the best in the world) still
learning, but you will get my drift on how this is done, you will notice that
i have been lasy and not put my nav bar to the left, but for ease put my nav
links above.

Hopefully this will help, please get back to me if you have any problems,
but there are others on this forum who are more knowledgeable and equally
helpful on this and other subjects, "David please jump in here if possible".
Cheers
