Scrollbar in "Table"

mcinar · January 2nd, 2005, 02:25 PM

Hi All,

I haven't seen it, but is it possible to have a Scrollbar option in "Table"?
Otherwise, is there any third party component available?

Thanks for your help,

I have applied CSS in contrast with the page design attempting to make a
<textarea> kind of like a scrolling cell (however I think we all know its just a styled textarea)

This is not exactly an ASP question, try the HTML/CSS area

Its on an intranet so I cant give a live link to it. I am on the genral house PC at the moment, I will get the style sheet off my laptop shortly. Do you have a CSS viewer? Eg topStyle? (shipped with homesite - I think)

I have just sent you an email, reply to it so I can send you a .jpg image of what it looks like. If its what you are after I will post the code here incase others want it. I have never tryed to attach an image to a post, it doesnt seem to be possible?

Instead I stripped it out into a cut n paste .html doc
As I said this is a styled textArea.
In reply to your initial question:
;;;is it possible to have a Scrollbar option in "Table"?
No, I believe not
-----------------------cut n paste start------------------
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>textArea Style</TITLE>
<style>
body { FONT-SIZE: 11px; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana,Helvetica;
                 scrollbar-TRACK-color:#ffffff;
                 scrollbar-FACE-color:#999999;
                 scrollbar-HIGHLIGHT-color:#ffffff;
                 scrollbar-SHADOW-color:#ffffff;
                 scrollbar-DARKSHADOW-color:#ffffff;
                 scrollbar-3DLIGHT-color:#ffffff;
                 scrollbar-ARROW-color:#ffffff; }
.ownBreifsTA { font-family:Verdana,Arial, Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 11px; color: #000000; border: 1px #999999 solid; background-color:#eeeeee;}
</style>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#999999">
<table>
<tR>
<td><textarea cols="50" name="myDrafts" rows="7" class="ownBreifsTA">Type stuff to make scroll bar appear</textArea></td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
---------------------finish-----------------------------

BTW: CSS can be taken a long way past what most think is possible, throw your question to this area of the forum if my 'hack' isnt doing it for you. Anyhow the wind is up, i'm heading to the ocean - HTH

Also: adjust the cols="50" & rows="7" to change its size
