This may be obvious but im not very sure so.... is it possible to make a table scrollable? or do i have to use layers or similar?

The reason being i have a site design which has an image along the bottom and it cant scroll through the whole page because the imaages cant move, so i want internal page scrolling. If that makes any sense.....

thanks

it doesn't exactly make sense to me ...

but for scrolling inside a table or data field i would use an iframe. you can't have the table scrollable by itself...

As OmuCuSucu said use Iframes

If you don't know already how to use Iframes...This site should help...

thanks for the help. I really wanted to avoid using iframes because of the way search engines respond to them, so ive decided to use the layers in dreamweaver. This may cause problems to some browsers but itll have to do.

Hey Guys,

I too was wondering about scrolling table. So, lets say for example you have a page to design which has a header, a footer and a table in the middle of these which you want the user to be able to scroll through in the event of data overflow. Would you use 3 seperate frames setting the scroll on the middle one?

There is a CSS tag that will do this if you want to use DIV statments. It may also work with tables, but I have tested it.

overflow: auto;

So far this seems to work in all major browsers with no problems. I have not tested on older browers yet.
