Hey guys,
My first post here but have found quite a few answers over the last few months - cheers! I'm fairly new to design, so this may be completely obvious but is there a way to make a normal text box scrollable so that its size remains constant? Failing that, is it poss to embed a html page in a box? My site is here:

I need the white box full of text to hold more than its current size, without altering any of the design. If I could make the box scrollable without changing its size somehow it would be ideal, but I have no idea how it could be done. Or embedding a html page in there? Any help would be great thanks!
Chris

PS Any comments on the code or design appreciated (be as harsh as you like!) [/code][/u]

Cheers both that's excellent!
1 leeetle thing:

Is there a way to keep the text padded away from the scrollbar, as per the cellpadding="10" in the box's properties, cos the text comes right up agains the scrollbar and looks cramped? (me being fussy! :) )

Thanking you!

you should be able to add

Code: [ Select ]
padding:5px 5px 5px 5px;


to the inline def's in my example above.

Code: [ Select ]
<style>#scrollMe{overflow:auto;height:200px;width:450px;}</style>


In the padding snippet, the first 5px represents the padding on the top, then it works its way around clockwise, so top, right, bottom, left.
