What would be the best way of going about this layout? I will try to explain it best i can and also attach a picture.

A header that is stretchy width-wise and has a fixed height, but not 100% of browser.

A right column that is stretchy height-wise and has a fixed width that is 100% of the browser height.

here's an example



Seems like it should be easy but I can't figure out the perfect way to do it.

Thanks!

Having a fluid width body with fixed width columns is an interesting discussion itself, although it is not difficult once you get the hang of it. Studying this is a must: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/holygrail (although it is not exactly what you describe).
