Creating an scrollbar per text item

[Drwyd]

Try this for the top line - Example attached

<div style="width:100%; height:100%; overflow: auto;">

Okay, I've now got it working. Thanks a lot!

One remaining question though: can I specify where to put the scrollbar?
I would like to have it to the right of the page, not directly next to the text.

The scroll bar must be beside the text or else your users wont know to scroll down for more text. It will just look like the text ends were your template ends.

Yes your example works fine, but this is the same solution as jamesd attached in post #3 which suffers from the same problem mentioned in post #4, ie; no WYSIWYG text formatting (or small anchored graphics etc) for the scrolling text panel.

Here is an example using wd6 to style the text.

Scrolling Div Solution-2.web

you need to strip some of the divs. Also make sure you don't copy the code from xara preview as it changes class names once its published.

Yes that's not a bad solution, though there is a character limit for the Replace with HTML code area, so be aware of this:
