 * I’m looking to edit a theme so that my page has a fixed height and width.
    The
   width is no problem, but I’m not real sure how to go about making the height 
   fixed.

 * What is the easiest way to get get my content to fit (with a scroll bar) inside
   the white box behind it? Do I really have to result to some sort of iframe?

 * not digging too deep into your css, the general idea will be to add three elements
   into your #content…
 * add to it:
 * **height: 400px;** /* or play for suitable height*/
 * **max-width: 400px;** /* Important!! otherwise you will get horizontal scroll
   bars, this should be the width you want + padding and margin- again, play for
   suitable sizing*/
 * **overflow: scroll;** /*you can also use auto in place of scroll, matter of fact,
   auto may not give you a horizontal scroll by default as it does in some browsers.*/
 * add it and see what happens, get back to us if it doesn’t do the trick!
