eek where my scrollybar

[the idiot]

ive rebuilt my site using scrolling divs instead of iframes but appear to
have lost my main scrollybar...
is this a natural result of using scrolling divs or have i done something
very very wrong?

Yup. Since you designed the page to fit nicely into 1024x768 no scrollbars
needed.
Interesting way of doing things. But I'd give the text area a bit more
height.
You could drop the email block down beside "tenfoot films".
Unless you plan on adding more text later, I see no viable reason for the
scrollbars.
Good job.

Sean:
In your stylesheet, notice the 'overflow' setting....

BODY { margin-top:5px; background: #45678A;overflow: hidden;}

remove it and see what happens! Then reference

of the coding for a scrolling div... which id nicked from a page showing
how to make one - thatll teach me.

Anywhere from 5-15%, I'd imagine. The W3Schools stats page says 10%.
