scrollable content script

[vagrant]

Does anyone know how to remove the bottom scroll bar from an iframe. All of my content is sized to fit the window horizontally so all I would need would be the vertical scrolling.

I'm currently using the "scrollable content" script from the dynamic content section of scripts.

Thanks for any advise

If your content is truly narrow enough to fit the horizontal dimensions (this can be tricky because default page and other margins and/or padding must be taken into account), all that is required is that your iframe's scrolling attribute be set to 'auto':

<iframe src="whatever.htm" scrolling="auto"></iframe>

Thanks for the reply,
The script in question (scrollable content) doesn't appear to have the "scrolling" variable so I'm not sure where to go from here.

thanks again,

It is not a variable. It is an attribute of the iframe tag, like width or height.

Sorry about that... started putting the URL in twice and brain farted twice.

In any event the scrolling "parameter/tag" doesn't appear to be used in the script (not that I saw, anyways).

I have removed the code at the bottom of the script between the <span></span> tags to resolve a different issue.

Thanks again

That script doesn't use an iframe, here is where the scrollbar behavior is set:

<div id="scroll3" style="width:170px;height:150px;background-color:lightyellow;overflow:scroll">

Change it to this:

<div id="scroll3" style="width:170px;height:150px;background-color:lightyellow;overflow:auto">

and as long as your content is narrow enough and/or can wrap to narrow enough dimensions to fit the division's width, there will be no horizontal scrollbar.

Excellent, I was looking for this ability too, thanks!!!!

I won't try this until tonight, but how hard would it be to mix this script with the Tabbed Content script?
