adding scrollbar

Guest

Hey guys!

I'd really appreciate help!
I have a website in which users don't have to scroll downwords. everything
displays on screen up on opening it. my problem is, that i want to add more
text, without having the user to scroll the page, but only scrolling a box
inside a page. I don't want to resize the font or change the layout.
My page is online already. http://www.ezeefilm.com/aboutezee/1.htm . At the
moment I just solved the problem by adding a second page with more text (if
the text didn't fit on one page I just added a Hyperlink "next" to let users
view the remainder of the text.).
I want the green box containg the "about ezee" to have a scrollbar on the
right, possibly in green color.
Is this possible using Frontpage and without any programming skills?

I'd be really greatful for any help what so ever!
Thanks guys

You could use a Div to accomplish this.

<div style="overflow:auto; height:250px; width:300px;"> Once content
reaches capacity, it will produce a scroll.

I tend to place mine in a table for positioning purposes. Not necessary,
just my preference. Just change height and width to your liking.

Well, the scrollbar will generally take on the look of the page it is on.
You can change it for the entire page, but I believe this only works in
Internet Explorer.

Example: This one is black and white. Place in the <Head> section. Just
change the hex to match your site.

<style type="text/css">
body {scrollbar-face-color: #000000;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-base-color: #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #000000;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #000000;
scrollbar-track-color: #000000;
scrollbar-arrow-color: #FFFFFF;}
</style>

Now I am CSS challenged, but there may be a way to change the scroll for the
Div via this method.
