My last example doesn't even have an iframe.
I don't think you're understanding what I did.
If you want the text to be visible, put it in the space I reserved for
"other objects". Obviously, this isn't a good idea for text that wraps
and is resizable, due to the fixed height. IIRC, you said you needed
the space for a map and other objects though. Not lorem ipsum. If 70px
isn't high enough for that, make that space bigger. If you would have
given *real* content for the area that needs to be in sight, I'd have
given it the correct space for that.

I'm quite sure that what you want can't be done.
Not because it isn't doable, but because you don't say what it is you
want. So far the closest thing to what you have actually said, would
be Neredbojias' example using JavaScript. Doesn't work without
JavaScript though, but then again you haven't yet said how many of the
prospective users of this page will have
a) JavaScript turned on
b) IE or FF
c) a very large window on a big enough monitor.
(have you looked at any of the examples on a 800x600?)
That, combined with you not saying what you want to achieve, makes it
impossible to get you what you want.
