Dear Mr.Alistair C Whittle

It is assumed that for the webpages you are approaching in a tabular format.To get the horizontal scroll bar to be forcible enforced
set the width attribute of the table to some value greater than pixel width of the window
The sample code is given here

<html>
<body>
<table width=1500>
<tr>
<th width=50>first column</th>
<th width=50>second column</th>
<th width=50>third column</th>
<th width=50>fourth column</th>
<th width=50>fifth column</th>
<th width=50>sixth column</th>
<th width=50>seventh column</th>
<th width=50>eighth column</th>
<th width=50>ninth column</th>
<th width=50>tenth column</th>
<th width=50>eleventh column</th>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>


This way you can enforce your browser to explicitly have a  horizontal scroll bar and this thing is valid in both Netscape Navigator
and Internet Explorer.

See you 

Manoj Kuamr Sharda

Hi

I have an HTML page, which contains about 11 columns of data. My problem is
that instead of having the page scroll right, the browser seems to squeeze
everything up so that it fits on to a page without scroll bars. Is there a
way to force the window to scroll right and not bunch everything up?

Thanks in advance.
