HTML - Help, Scrollable Window Within Webpage
Hi all, I'm quite new to webpage development in HTML & using Dreamweaver 8.0.
I am trying to put a small scrollable window within the main webpage, so that the text inside this scrollable window can be scrolled vertically without having to scroll the main window up & down. The webpage I'm building is an FAQs. An example of what I mean can be found on the following webpage : http://www.xe.com/ucc/ where the user can scroll vertically to see more currency options. Please refer to my two screen captures where I've shown the code I used & the screen capture from the browser window. I only want the scrollable window to scroll vertical. Much thanks in advance for your expert help. Andrew Similar TutorialsHow i create a frame type space( which is scrollable ) similar to seperate window inside a webpage ? HI: I have a very long table (with 5 columns). I wish to have this table (vertical size="350px") to have a scroll bar on the right-side, so that the user can scroll down thru the table, but yet still see the 'div' below it on the viewport. Suggestions please on a 'scrollable' table. Thanks, -Mel Smith Hi Guys How do I make scrollable divs ? Like the ones in hotmail contacts when writing a new email. I have a Table and I need to have it in some kind of scrollable panel. Is there such a scrollable component? Thanks... I'm not sure where this should be listed so I'm starting here - Here's the website I'm working on - www.drscopesnaturalhealthcare.com - I'd like to add a textbox under the image below the "news" lable that has a scroll bar on it so it can have quite a bit of content in it but remain a constant size. I know I could do this with frames, but I don't want to use frames. I think I can do this with CSS, but I'm not sure how. Is there an easier way or can some one point me to the element to use in CSS? Thanks. cybergrrl Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum so please correct me if I'm doing anything wrong or if this post is in the wrong section. I have a custom template for my website which allows you to scroll down and view my photographs. I would like to keep it this way BUT I would like to implement Google Ads on either sides of my centered content. I want these ads to be stationary even if a viewer is scrolling to the bottom of my site. Is this possible, and even then, is it hard to do? I really appreciate your help. Here is the link to my website if that helps. http://floatingcity.tumblr.com Cheers, Kyle Hi, I have a div element, that will contain various debug/warning messages from Javascript. If I set it's height to 100%, so to fill the parent element, it overlaps the parent element. How can I automatically set the height, without manually setting the height in pixels? Many thanks for any suggestions. Regards Aaron HTML Code: <div style="border-style: solid; border-width: 3px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; z-index: 1000; position: fixed; top: 252px; left: 582px; width: 494px; height: 202px; background-color: white; display: block;"> <h1 style="width: 100%; height: 20px; font-size: 12px; display: block; border-bottom-width: 2px; border-bottom-style: solid; vertical-align: middle;"><img src="https://127.0.0.1/beer2/i/clear.png" style="cursor: pointer;" alt="clear"/><img src="https://127.0.0.1/beer2/i/min.png" style="cursor: pointer;" alt="Minimise"/> Debug Window</h1> <div style="overflow: scroll; width: 100%; height: 100%; font-size: 12px; position: static;"> <p>test</p> <p>test</p> <p>test</p> <p>test</p> <p>test</p> <p>test</p> <p>test</p> <p>test</p> <p>test</p> </div> </div> Not sure if this is possible or not, but I created a scroll box, which contains a title and then text underneath it. Is there a way to limit the scrollable area, so the title is always fixed at the top of the scroll box and the text scrolls up and disappears just below the title? If its not possible in HTML/CSS, then how else can I do this? Thanks for your help in advance. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Despite reading multiple posts on "scrollable" table cells on the forums, I've not yet quite found the answer to my question, so hopefully I can get some feedback from all viewers out there! I and some friends run a small Catholic arts and crafts website (www.illuminatedink.com) through which we sell products that we create. I've based the page layout on a table instead of frames or iframes. The table has 3 cells in it. The entire top "banner area" of the screen is one cell. Below that on the left we have the naviagation menu cell. The main content that someone is trying to view appears in the remaining lower right cell (also the largest). This page works great on all the computers at my house (3 of them) and on most other computers as well. I have yet to test this in IE 7.0, but if someone else has that browser, please let me know what happens. So, what's the problem you ask? That lower right table cell where all the content appears does not work for everyone. I just got another complaint today that no scroll bar appears and the person can only see what's in the top of cell, there is no "scrollability". Here is a sample (with notes made by me in ** NOTE ** format). The notes are of course not in the actual code, I am showing only the code really matters here. Code: <BODY STYLE="margin-top: 0px; margin-left: 0px"> <TABLE CELLPADDING=0 CELLSPACING=0 HEIGHT=590 WIDTH=1000> <TR HEIGHT=90> <TD WIDTH=1000 COLSPAN=2 STYLE="background-image:url('http://www.illuminatedink.com/images/background/banner.jpg')">   </TD> </TR> <TR HEIGHT=500> <TD VALIGN=top WIDTH=200 STYLE="background-image:url('http://www.illuminatedink.com/images/background/menu_bar.jpg');background-repeat:no-repeat"> <TABLE ALIGN="center" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0> **Navigation menu on the left side goes here** </TABLE> </TD> <TD WIDTH=800 VALIGN="top"> <DIV STYLE="overflow:auto;height:490px;width:800px;position:absolute;left:200;padding-right:30px; padding-left:0px"><MAP NAME="page_links"> **All code for the scrollable cell in the lower right goes here** </DIV> </TD> </TR> </TABLE> </BODY> So, can anyone possibly tell me why this would have a scroll bar in some browers and not in others? Or does anyone have any code changes I could make that may guarantee that they will get a scroll bar in that lower right cell? The complaints that I have received mainly seem to be from Mac users using IE for Mac. But I just had someone who had a brand new Dell with Windows XP Prof. and the most recent IE 6, which is exactly the configuration I run, but didn't get a scroll bar when I did. Ideas? Thank you! Sorry if i posted this in the wrong location. So im a real estate agent making a website. Im no pro and most of the stuff ive been using to build has been through layouts/generators/help of others such as yourselves. So ive been stuck on finding/making this code for the past couple of days. So all my listings are on my agencys website, not my personal agent website. Is there a code i could have where in the listings page my my personal agent website, i could have a window maybe 600x900 of the listing page on my agencys website? To kind of clear things up, you know how when you google something you have the magnifying glass, how it gives that preview. How can i have that preview coded onto a webpage, but me say what webpage to preview and how big to make the preview box? Tried to explain it as best i could. If you dont know the code, if you can tell me what its called so i can try to narrow the google searches. So far everything that has been coming up in the search restults has been preview boxes to preview html codes you have already written. Fail Blog Thanks Hi all, I am wondering if anyone know how to have a link, once clicked, open a popup window WHILE also changing the page in the existing window. I know how to code them separately, but I do not know how to combine the two actions. HTML Code: <A HREF="javascript:popUp('popup.html')">link name</A> My site currently uses the above code to open popup windows. Any help would be much appreciated, David Here is the case. I have an HTML page that opens a pop-up. Within the popup I need upon click to open a new window. The code is as it should be according to all references: <a href="some url" target="_blank">text</a> Everything is ok with IE6 and IE7 - a new window is being opened. What happens in Firefox is very strange - tabs are shown and the currently opened popup becomes one of the tabs and the new window opens in a new tab of the pop-up window instead in a new normal window. Did anybody encounter the same problem? Any solutions?

Contact me he galevin@hotmail.com Thanks, Gerald Levin Hello, I remember something like this, which is you have an xhtml form, you have textboxes, buttons etc, then the user clicks on the submit button triggers the sendform feature element and sends it to the email address specified. How do you do that in html? i remember it was like send form, then the email address etc etc and anything between the send form tag is where it will email anything in the text box fields. if you can send me an example that would be great.
