Hey gang,
I really need some help for making a deadline. I'm trying to incorporate three seperate vertical scrollbars like the page right here (http://screenwriting.ugo.com/reviews.php).
I have limited knowledge of using CSS and Dreamweaver. Is there any way someone could help me bridge the gap with code or point me in the right direction. Been trying to make this work for two days now and I'm starting to go gray.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
depends on your webpage,
you can use a scrolling div area if the contents are belonging on the same page it is being displayed on,
or you can use iframes if you need to show different webpages inside of the areas at the click of a link.
the page you showed as an example uses iframes, so you are actually viewing 4 different webpages right there. the main page, and three different webpages inside of those columns.
you can do a search for both those types of things when you know which one you want to do. scrolling divs are css. iframes are frames.

Thanks for the help... from one BCer to another. Looks like I need to dive into iframes. Been going around in circles for a while now.

Hey gang thanks for all the help, but I'm still a little stuck on how to get my iframe to call up the html page i created with the content i want to go inside of the scroll bar area? I'm sure it's probably one step i'm missing or doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated, and thanks again everyone.
the IFRAME tag should have an SRC value. that is the starting page being shown inside the IFRAME space.
the IFRAME tag should also have a NAME value.
example...
<iframe src="startpage.html" name="myiframe"></iframe>
now if you want to click a link and have it appear inside the iframe, just add a TARGET to your links and match the value to the NAME of the iframe like so...
<a href="newpage.html" target="myiframe"> clickity </a>

Ok here is the iframe I'm trying to use , I'm pretty sure this is right?
<iframe width=245 height=600 marginwidth=0 marginheight=0 frameborder=0 scrolling=no src="reviews_script.htm" name="features"></iframe>
Thanks again

Sorry you can skip last question i figured it out, but now new problem, the content i want to fit in iframe doesn't fit and my question is, do i have to duplicate the cell or table i want the content to go in from my style sheet?
Thanks for your patience and your help
