Form tyextbox scroll bar

[Paul C]

Hi
How do you get rid of the scroll bar but have it appear when needed. In
frontpage you can set the number of lines and the scroll bar is greyed out
but I would like it to appear like this example
http://www.essential-viewing.com/contact
If you add lots of text to the "nature of interest" field on the bottom
right of the page a scroll bar appears but is not there until needed and how
do you make it grey like that?

Thanks

What scrollbar are you referring to? I looked at that site and the only
scrollbar is the IE one and I don't see it disappearing or grayed out

I believe that's a function of the browser, not any particular coding that
needs to be done. The scroll bars will appear based upon content.

Hi David its the scroll bars on the text box "nature of interest" there is
just a grey box with no scroll bar until the text box is full. in frintpage
the textboxes have a greyed out scroll bar its this greyed out scroll bar I
am trying to remove so it leaves a nice neat grey box

Paul,

You need to look at their form.css file to see how they accomplished this.

}
