    background-color:#FFD47B;
    /*background-color:blue;*/
    border:1px dotted gray;
    border-radius:20px 20px;
    padding-left:30px;

Add overflow: auto; to the CSS.

So, CSS Class would look like...

CSS

.mainDivCenter {
    overflow: auto;
    width:1250px;
    margin:0 auto;
    padding-top:5px;
    padding-bottom:5px;
    background-color:#FFD47B;
    /*background-color:blue;*/
    border:1px dotted gray;
    border-radius:20px 20px;
    padding-left:30px;
    padding-right:30px;
    min-height:680px;
    height:100%;
}
