Built a site, that on certain pages uses the tag, <div style="BORDER-RIGHT: black 1px solid; PADDING-RIGHT: 5px; BORDER-TOP: black 0px solid; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; OVERFLOW: auto; BORDER-LEFT: black 1px solid; WIDTH: 390px; PADDING-TOP: 5px; BORDER-BOTTOM: black 1px solid; HEIGHT: 180px">
Within this tag I call a JavaScript that references a simple text file.
<script language="JavaScript" src="steve.js"></script>
The feature does work in IE 5.1 on Mac, BUT, for some odd reason, the page scrolls down way below the bottom margin of the main table, showing lots of blank space below the page. I am trying to figure a work around and NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW! :( In my mind, even if I included 10,000 lines of text within the JS, IE 5.1 should not scroll vertically other than the height I have set in the <div> tag which is 180px.
Here's what I do know:
1. I don't want to use iFrames because of the small gray border that appears at the top of the frame--very distracting.
2. The above <div> tag and the JS does work on other pages where the content of the text file is only a few lines. There is no "endless vertical scroll" beyond the main table of the page.
3. The code works fine in IE 5+, NN 5+
PLEASE HELP!
