Hi,

I'm having a problem with scroll bars.

I'm looking for a method of replacing the default browser scrollbars
with custom ones, on <div> tags on pages INSIDE <iframe> tags.

This page shows an example of the problem:

http://www.darkaudio.co.uk/v2/scroll_test/index.html

the top three panels are <div> tags on the page. The bottom one is an
<iframe> with a page inside it with the same <div> on it.

How can I go about preventing the scroll bar from insetting itself as
in the bottom example?

Thanks.

CSS: width:100% or no `width' declaration on .jScrollPaneContainer and
.scroll-pane and a bit more `padding-right' on the latter.

The scrollbar is a bit jumpy when dragged which is probably due to all this
jQuery nonsense. Personally, I don't like this iframe approach of yours as
a whole. It's a pain to navigate, to bookmark and to print. Try to avoid them.

BTW: This is Usenet, not a real-time support forum. Despite your customer
attitude showed with
<news:36fdc1b2-65e1-4617...@i76g2000hsf.googlegroups.com> and
<news:d0fc07d1-8169-4dc4...@m45g2000hsb.googlegroups.com> you
got an answer -- this time. And get a real name.

Thanks for your input Mr German man. I was unaware that only
particular questions could be asked on 'Usenet' and names such as dark
are inferior to that of Thomas PointedEars Lahn. Unfortunately your
solution didn't work. Maybe i'll try Mootools, coding is mind boggling
for us 3d designers.

It is the way you asked the question(s), and since the solution would
obviously not have anything to do with scripting, also the newsgroup
where you asked it.

Some consider posting under ones real name to be polite behavior, and the
lack of it to be the opposite -- like attending an interview with a skiing
mask put on.

It works fine in my Firefox 3.0.1.

Which would get you out of the frying pan into the fire, of course.

Why not let someone do the job who knows what they are doing in the first place?

Prototype.js was written by people who don't know javascript for people
who don't know javascript. People who don't know javascript are not
the best source of advice on designing systems that use javascript.

No its not - if you were from the US I would have thrown my toys out
the pram.

Ok, i'll reassess that for the future.

My name on Groups was 'Will' which is my real name - not sure how or
when I changed it and not sure how to change it back.

It works fine in my Firefox 3.0.1.

I'll have another try.

Why? I need to use iframes by the way.

Free website - money issue for coder. Hence asking online.
