Archived from groups: alt>www>webmaster, others (more info?)

Hi, I am trying to implement a scrollbox on my page.

I want it to work in IE6 & NN7 at the very least.

Here is what I've done so far:
http://www.schoolyardrules.com/overflow/index_4.htm

In IE6 it works as I want it but in NN7 it stretches the cell to the right
of the scroll box as the div is height it too great.
If I reduce it for NN it looks out in IE.

Is there anyway I can get it to fit both?

I tried using % instead of px but it didnt work.

Here is the the CSS:
..myscrollbox {
height:113px;
overflow:auto;
overflow-x:visible;
width: 425px;
font-family: Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 10pt;
color: #000000;
text-align: justify;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
}

Thanks - Joe

I even have NN7.1 and it looks fine as well.

you should use a js browserSniffer in the <head> and adjust accordingly

Thanks for checking,

Its the cell to the right of the scroll box - when you roll over it its
easier to see - its not quite flush to the border.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

"> you should use a js browserSniffer in the <head> and adjust accordingly

is that something that will detect the browser then divert accordingly to a
separate page?
