    CSS: Dimensions - Scrollbars in CSS


    (Page 5 of 5 )

    Since there is a little bit of space available and we have finished our discussion of dimensions in CSS, I figured I would throw in a brief example of working with scrollbars. Try the following example:


    <html>

    <head>

    </head>

    <body>

    <style type="text/css">

    .scroll{

    display:block;

    border: 1px solid blue;

    padding:5px;

    margin-top:5px;

    width:200px;

    height:100px;

    overflow:scroll;

    }

    .auto{

    display:block;

    border: 2px solid red;

    padding:5px;

    margin-top:5px;

    width:300px;

    height:150px;

    overflow:auto;

    }

    </style>

    <p>This is a scroll:</p>

    <div class="scroll">

    My favorite cereals are: Apple Jacks, Cheerios, Fruit Loops, Pops, Cookie Crisp, and Peanut Butter Captain Crunch even though it cuts up the roof of my mouth. It is worth it though.

    </div>

    <br />

    <p>With an auto value:</p>

    <div class="auto">

    My least favorite cereals are anything healthy. I mean, who needs that. It's all about the sugar. In fact, I have never tried a cereal that was really healthy for you, and if I did, I added so much sugar to it that it wasn't even funny. </div>

    </body>

    </html>

    Well that's all the time we have for now. I will cover how scrollbars work in our next exciting episode, so stick around.

    Till then...
