open window within cell of a table

[Jive1]

Hey!
I want to open from the menu a scrollable window within one cell of a table on the same page as the menu. I.e., I want from the menu open the window and modify the contents of that window eacht time according to what I chose from the menu. Above that, I want to adapt all variables of the window according to size and colour of the background of that page.
Who can advise me?

I am sure there are better ways, but just an initial idea, you can place an iframe in the table cell, the iframe would call an html document. Each link in your menu would display a different html page in the iframe.

Or you can use layers (divs) with hide and show by javascript, I think there is a snippet of code kicking around that makes a div scrollable.

I am sure the codies here will be able to answer better.
