Scrollable Pane on Page? 2

[stevensteven]

Hello,

Is there a control or HTML tag that allows me to make a section of page scrollable.

From my great diagram of a page:

_____________________
|............................... |
| The page................ |
|................................ |
|.... ___________ ..... |
|... | Scroll HTML|..... |
|... | Only HERE |..... |
|... |___________|..... |
|.................................|

steven: You can use an IFrame which would embed another web page (internal frame). The code would look something like:

<td width="400" height="271" rowspan="2" align="center" valign="top">
 <iFrame name="strFrm" align="left" valign="top" width="393" height="270" src="HUCMOD.aspx" Frameborder="0" Scrolling="No">
</iFrame>
</td>

Which appears inside a table and references the second page. Here the Scrolling is turned off, you can set it to on, and if the 2d page is larger than the rectangle represented by the IFrame, scrollbars will appear.

You can also embed, e.g., a Listbox or DataGrid, within <DIV> tags and thereby force scrolls to appear. This code would look something like (around a DataGrid which makes the latter scrollabe):

...
<div style="height:500px;overflow:auto;width:850px;">
 'place grid here (listbox, etc)
</div>
...

In this way the scrollbars are a function of the Div parameters. Hope this helps.

That 2nd set of code is exactly what I am looking for.

Thank you.
