If it is online, give us a link so we can check, I am useing IE7. No, I do not think you can do what you wish. Overflow is just hiding anything out side the box size. The internal anchors are anchoring based on the content in the source code, so the anchor is jumpig down to where the text is ... just invisible. So it is doing it correctly. IE for Mac is old, it was created before things like overflow existed, so new CSS2 is not supported. ---------------------------------------- Gu.aal kwsh� yak'�i it�akw ijeet wugood�k LSW-WebDesign.com |

It will work. On Firefox, Opera, and IE for the PC it's doing what you want. Scrolling Div with "Go To" Links If it's just an older version of IE on your Mac that its not displaying properly you could use conditional comments to hide overflow auto from it and just have the content display normally. man I hate IE ? it's always the problem browser for me, all the other main browsers display as they should without any problems Yup , know what thats like.  ---------------------------------------- Quiquid latine dictum sit altum viditur |

Dear Stefan, I tried your suggestion for the scrolling window and it worked just fine. However, I want it located on the right side of a page. Should this be done with frames? Thanks, Chris |

No frames are depreciated and never a good idea, that is what this article is about, getting rid of them. You have a box, you have fixed the size of that box, now just use CSS to move that box where you want it on the page asyou would any other element. Nothing changes. ---------------------------------------- Gu.aal kwsh� yak'�i it�akw ijeet wugood�k LSW-WebDesign.com |

this is a great post with great info thanks guys. i do have one question however. i have a site that i use phpbb2 on. currently i use an IFRAME to display the forum in when a user click on that link. i also use eqDKP for tracking raid values for an online game, which also appears in the same IFRAME. i know iknow, bad boy using frames. i have known for a long time that frames, especially inline ones, are bad juju. my question is, using these scrolling <div> areas, is it possible to display the content of that phpbb2 forum and eqDKP within that <div> area? if so how? i would like to keep the general look of the site but get rid of the IFRAME (it is a pain in the neck). with the complexity of the backend code for both phpbb2 and eqDKP i am concerned i will have to do some heavy modding in order to squeeze them into that scrolling <div> area. Check out the site Take a look please. I appreciate ya'lls help with this. ~J ---------------------------------------- [Edit 2 times, last edit by s3maj at Sep 13, 2006 12:27:23 PM] |

You could always use a php include inside the div to call up the forum. <?php include("path/to/fourm/") ?> Then adjust your DIV attributes using CSS to make the Forum fit inside neatly. Now, if you are using a content management system, like phpnuke, joomla, etc, you may have to use iframes.. TO test, just create a test page with the php include and see how it works out for you. I've been able to do this with php link/directory management scripts without a problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------ John D.

I have a problem I'm hoping someone might be able to help me with... On this page: http://dev.pedroncelli.com/find/map.asp I have a drop down menu of states and a scrolling div with a map, both with anchor links to listings further down the page within the div. If you click on any part of the map it will drop down to the appropriate section; however, if you select a state in the drop down menu it jumps to the correct anchor link but does not display unless you then click within the div and highlight some of the text... then the listing appears. This only happens in IE; the drop down menu links work fine in Mozilla Firefox. Thank you! |
