How do I create a vertical text scroll (with buttons up/down/stop) in a table? It needs to be relative to the page.

I hope someone can help me on this, since I have browsed the internet for a solution for hours with no luck!
Thank you in beforehand!

You can use a <textarea> and make it readonly, or you can use an <iframe> with the text in another HTML file inserted there.
 
Yes, I know about those options. But in <textarea> I cannot use bold typing for example. And I want to avoid frames if I can. But thank you anyway!
 
<div style=&quot;overflow:scroll;width:50px;height:75px;&quot;>
