I'm making a website, and i have a table which shows site updates.<br />
<br />
However, instead of making the page huge with updates, i'd like to have a scroll bar inside the table, to scroll up and down that table only, i've seen this done on another website, but i'm not sure how.<br />
<br />
Can anyone help?<!--content-->Hi,<br />
Consider using IFRAME. You can decide width and height how much u want and what content goes inside this IFRAME.<br />
<br />
if its simple update (plain text) then look for TEXTBOX tag. I hope its of some use.<br />
<br />
thx - vish<!--content-->Another alternative is putting your table inside a div like this<br />
<br />
<div style="width:100px; height:50px; overflow:auto;><br />
<table...></table><br />
</div><br />
<br />
this will not require a new page for your table, unlike the iframe element.<br />
<br />
Dave<!--content-->woudn't that put the scroll bar just outside of the table though

Re: the <textbox> tag<br />
Thanks for the idea, but the text, and background are formatted with CSS styles.<br />
<br />
The table was already in a div, i just added that overflow style and it works great, thanks. One more thing though, can i edit the scroll bar attributes like colour, like i could on the main page scrollbars?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance<br />
<br />
edit: never mind, i found out myself, simple really<!--content-->hi,<br />
I am also looking for the scrollbars prob.<br />
check the thread 'CSS SCROLLBARS' under CSS section.<br />
