scroll bar

[Anon]

Hello everyone!

I have a menu on the top and left side of my page and The scroll bar in my browser allows me to scroll down, but when I do I lose the top menu, and the side menu is not all visible either. What I want to do is get that one part on the lower right side of my page to scroll, and have it not affect my menus.

I know this is possible cause I've seen it before. Any Ideas on how to do this, or can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks for your help! It is greatly appreciated. 🙂

make your site with frames <frame>
or put your menu in a layer

Check HTML tutorials. Here is PHP forum and it is not related.

don't be such a grouch SaS.

Leena...

If you are new to the industry then try using a WYSIWIG (What You See Is What You Get) editor such as Macromedia Dreamweaver or Microsoft Frontpage (Urgh!).

Dreamweaver is the best to go for and demo versions are available off the internet.

To accomplish the task that you require, simply split the site up into what's known as a frameset. The help files in dreamweaver will tell you how to do this.

I would advise against using layers (refer to the help files in dreamweaver) unless you only plan to develop your site for internet explorer and netscape navigator 6 and above. Earlier generations of these browsers have different ways of handling layers and will almost definately make your site look naff in different browsers.

Anything more I can help you with, drop me a line, as SaS so rightly but sternly pointed out, this forum deals with PHP which is different to HTML. So to stop SaS from biting, send me an email instead.
