I can't seem to figure out how to get my entry area into a scrollbar area.

My Journal (http://www.ajnih.livejournal.com)


If you look at the background you can see there is an area surrounded by barbwire in the middle part. My resolution is set at 1024X768 and I assume the journal would be lest looked at in that resolution.


Anyways, what override is needed to be altered to make it so that there is a scroll area, or what override do I need to put into my code.

Thanks a million

A scrolling area can only be created by placing the entry tables in a scrolling div layer. However, div layers cannot be created in overrides because the overrides are CSS. In order to create the scrolling area, you would need access to the full coding of the journal, which can only be done by acquiring a paid account (http://www.livejournal.com/shop/index.bml?class=paidaccount).

O_o...

I uh, think you've missed what I was trying/looking to do. Or I didn't explain it very well. I've been able to do it with a pre-made. Here's teh overrides.


div{
position:absolute;
left:280px;
top:95px;
width:435px;
height:350px;
overflow:auto;
clip:rect(auto);


Would that be what I'm looking for?

Yes, because that would be affecting the div tags in the layout. The only thing is that I don't know what clip:rect(auto); does, so I would suggest not changing that.

Also, since your entries are bigger than the area that you want to place the scrolling layer, you need to resize the content. If you don't have that override already, it can be found here: http://community.livejournal.com/howto/11050.html

And, there needs to be a closing bracket at the end of what you posted.

div {
position:absolute;
left:280px;
top:95px;
width:435px;
height:350px;
overflow:auto;
clip:rect(auto);
}

Thanks.

You're welcome. :) I hope that you get your journal the way you want it.
