I have a table that's about 4 times the height of my screen. I want to
display it in a scrolling window. How do I go about doing that?

But I don't want this to be a form. The text withing the table has links in
it I want my users to click on.

You can either set up your page in Frames or IFRAMES (IE only)
Another alternative is to use DHTML and layers

I can't see why you'd use an iframe here - if NN4 support isn't important a
scrolling div would be easier, eg
<div id="scroll">
<table>...etc
this table content will scroll as needed
</table>
</div>
and this is the style
#scroll {
height: 250px;
overflow: auto;}
In NN4 the whole table will display non-scrolling. To get scrolling in NN4
would need quite a lot of script.

I'm new at all of this. I pasted the code you sent me into a web page and
the text of the code is what I see, not the scrolling text box. Can you
please explain to me how to make it work? Thanks!!!

Hi Sherry,
Copy and paste this onto a new page -
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
#scroll {
height: 250px;
overflow: auto;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="scroll">
<table>
<tr><td>....put your text here......</tr></td>
</table>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Experiment with 250px to get the height you want - if you're still stuck
give me a shout in the morning and I'll put up an example page

Did you paste it from his post to Notepad and from Notepad to FP Html (Code) View (not into normal design view)
