Div tags problem on centered layout

Question

Like the title says, I'm working on a centered layout and I
need to place a div tag that has an overflow for scrolling. The
problem is what do I do so that it does just that. I tried using an
AP div tag but it doesn't follow the rest of the layout if you play
with the browser width. And if I simply put a div tag in my table,
I don't know how to put an overflow on it. I only have a limited
amount of space for the text, and I have too much text to simply
put it in the table. It's my first time working on a centered
layout, so I'm kind of at a lost right now. And that's the only
thing stopping me from putting it online.

<div style="overflow:scroll">

If that's the case, then you have a broken layout scheme, and
a usability
problem.
