HTML Tricks: Scroll Box
Here's how to add a scroll box to your website, blog, or whatever! Simply take this code:
<div style="border: 1px solid #aaa;background-colo r:#f9efef; width:350px; height:250px; overflow:auto; color:#FFF;"><p>
</p>
</div>
Place whatever you want in between the <p> and </p>. Adjust size, border, background, and text color as needed.

I was just browsing various blogs as I was doing a search on the word poster, and I just wanted to say that I really like what you've done with your blog, even though it wasn't particularly related to what I searched for. I appreciate your postings, and your blog is a good example of how a blog should be done. I've only just recently started a Posters website - feel free to visit it when you get a chance if you wish. Much success, antonio.

Where have you been all my life?!?
Just what I badly needed!
Thanks a lot!
to anonymous - you need to have a lot of items listed to get a scroll bar, if not, it will just be a box.
Try adjusting the height and insert your stuff between p and /p
Is there a trick to get items to go to a new line cause enter doesn't work and I dont wanna put "<" br ">" (without the quotes) before my list (423 items) thanks so much!
Sorted - Thankyou very much. I was going to ask How to make this work in Wordpress sidebar please? But I managed my first scroller on WP...wheeee!

Hey, How did you get the html to show up in there by itself ... e-mail me at krayzy77@gmail.com
If It doesnt work for you, meaning you get the box but no scroll bar write more text and the more you write it will start to scroll.

Thanks a lot for sharing this trick. I've been searching for this trick in google all night and everything I found didn't work on my blog. Thanks to you now my blogroll looks more organized and my sidebar looks neater. Kudos!
Yay.
Thankyou.
It works well :]
Bear HUGGGS to you. Your's worked! I tried suggestions from several others but they did not succeed. So you can imagine how happy I am after using your code.
Cheers!
No scrollbox code ever works for myspace. I've tried adjusting the height and width but nothing seems to work. When I preview/save changes it comes out as blank. I know I have enough text but it doesn't work anyway.
Thank You! That was easy!
awesome job man! exactly what i needed!
I love this! Thank you SO much for sharing it with us all.
thank you. this really helped my site www.haxorz.net add a "recent updates" table
thanks so much for this scroll box I love the fact that you can change the border to be dashed or dotted or just get rid of it. gives this scroll nice versatility.
Thanks for the code, and it's really easy to work with. But I'm trying to use it on my freewebs and I can't seem to get two on the same line. Can you or anyone help?
Excellent help thanks. The reason you guys are having trouble is because you have to change the hex colors. Your font is white, just like your background color. Also no scroll bar appears because you dont have enough text to make it scroll yet.
Thank you.
I used it here
