Tables don't have scrollbars.
You will need to use frames.

Additionally, up and down is vertical.
Side to side is horizontal.

Andrew,
Someone else has picked up on that.

With the time differences, we here in Australia perhaps need to check who
posted what when :))

tbuck68,
If you do want a vertical scrolling "table", it can't be done as a table but
as an iframe, you could try this (copied from an example on my site):

<head>
<style type="text/css">
iframe.c4 {width: 100%; height: 20%; scroll:auto;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<iframe class="c4" id="Galldetl" src="yourfile.html"></iframe>

The height can be whatever you want. If the content is too large, then the
scroll bars will appear.

Could you try placing an iframe in a cell of table - not tried, just a
suggestion ?

Hi,
Stick a div in the table like this
<div style="height:200px; overflow:auto">
......stuff
</div>
Obviously change the height to whatever you want
