I have a journal type... thing... on killingmachines.org and you can have HTML codes on the top of the page and the bottom, and in the middle they have your entries, and I wanted to have the entries show up in a textarea, but it showed up as the code since it was in the textarea, so what I was wondering is, is there a different type of text box that I can put on there so that it won't show up as the HTML code? Yeah... that's kind of ... poorly explained... if you want to see what I'm talking about, http://www.bitingbubbles.killingmachines.org go there, and um, if you can help... that'd be nice. heh. I'm bad at explaining things...

You'll probably have to use an inline frame. They look just like textboxes when they're done, and they're really easy to set up. :) You can learn how to make them here:

i know how to use inline frames, but with an inline frame the stuff inside the frame is from another page. i would just use a table, but tables don't scroll.

I don't think you can achieve what you want without disabling your site to older browsers.

I have no idea what you're talking about, and if it were my site I would just use the inline frames.

It sounded as if you wanted to stay away from iframes, and I meant that there are little other ways you can do it.

I don't quite understand, but if you want to avoid iframes, divs can scroll too....
