Gridview causing table to resize to size of grid

[dbsquared]

I have a gridview in a table so that the user only has to scroll down within the smaller window and not go down a long page.
I have used this with datagrids many times and now I have converted to a gridview this issue is popping up.

Below is the HTLM for the table and the gridview.
What I would like is for the table to not resize with the gridview and the table will put a scroll bar on.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

    <DIV style="BORDER-RIGHT: 1px solid; TABLE-LAYOUT: fixed; BORDER-TOP: 1px solid; Z-INDEX: 101; OVERFLOW: auto; BORDER-LEFT: 1px solid; WIDTH: 98%; CURSOR: default; BORDER-BOTTOM: 1px solid; POSITION: relative; TOP: 24px; HEIGHT: 82%; left: 0px; "align="justify">
      <asp:GridView ID="dgDatabase" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" BackColor="White" 
                    BorderColor="#999999" BorderStyle="Solid" BorderWidth="1px" CellPadding="3" ForeColor="Black"
                    GridLines="Vertical" AllowSorting="True">
                    <SelectedRowStyle BackColor="#000099" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White" />
                    <PagerStyle BackColor="#999999" ForeColor="Black" HorizontalAlign="Center" />
                    <HeaderStyle BackColor="Black" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White" />
                    <AlternatingRowStyle BackColor="#CCCCCC" />
                    <FooterStyle BackColor="#CCCCCC" />
[COLOR=red]blah blah blah[/color]

       </asp:GridView>
     </DIV>

This would be most easily accomplished by using an iframe in the table and putting the gridview inside the iframe.

I'd say it would be easier to use a div tag instead (check out the "overflow: auto" method).
