Hi,

is there anyway to add a scrollable area to a webpage that works in Netscape 4+, without having to make the layers absolutely positioned. I have tried Brattli´s ( very good page scroll script, but it won´t simply work with NS4.

my argument here is that it is a bloody waste of time and an aweful lot of effort for nothing.

Here is what I use and works in IE4+ and NS6+ but not NS4:

<div style=&quot;height:100;width:80;overflow:auto;&quot;>
// here my content.
</div>

That works great and you don't have to worry about anything at all. Problem is NS4 sucks and is antiquated and developper around the world should drop supporting it.

If you still want to support it go to there is a scroll there that is compatible with NS4 but not Mozilla nor NS6.

Do your choice! :) Drop NS4 in favor of newer browsers. :) Gary Haran
 
I'd have to agree with Xutopia here, even though NS 6 and not NS 7 are much better, NS4 is a waste of time and effort...when I code for my clients I tell them right away that NS4 will not look good but any other browser it will look great...
Coding for NS4 is such a hassle that sometimes I hate designing...lol I have not failed; I merely found 100,000 different ways of not succeding...
