I have searched for this with no answer. My page loads up perfectly when I load the header, navigation and then center image...all 3 different divs. However I have more I need to add and the div tags change the size of the page even though the css I'm using isn't larger than the page. I have no idea what is happening.
Here's the code page where everything is fine:

When I add the below div tag with the below css I get a bottom scrollbar on the page and I don't know why. Can someone please explain it to me?
#middleTextBox1 {
position: absolute;
top:507px;
left:172px;
width:180px;
height:180px;
background-color:#411b42;
border: 1px
solid #434343;
padding:10px;
color: #FFFFFF;
font-size: 10px;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
<div id="middleTextBox1">
<h3 align="center">Mission:</h3>
Words
</div>
I really have no idea why this is happening, could someone please help me out? Thanks for your time.
