You can add the following to your template's stylesheet:

html {
overflow-y: scroll;
}

at least I think that's correct. If not, you should be able to find the answer by G00gling it.

Code:
.contentpaneopen{
height:yourheight;
overflow-y: scroll;
}


Or change the contentpaneopen to your Div where is the maincontent.

But a better and smoother way to scroll a div is this way>> http://www.joomlaplates.com/demo_server ... /index.php

Where is it that you're trying to add the scrollbar?

Also, a link to your site would be helpful.

These Scrollbars are only for DIV Container and not for tables... But you have table in your template.. :'(

Hi.

There are some cross browser compatibility issues in website design (Specially CSS) between Firefox and IE. Some CSS may work in Firefox but not in IE and vice versa or the result might not be the same.
You can get around this problem by defining two css codes in your css file: The one that will work with Firefox and the one that will work with IE or look for a Standard W3C CSS that will work for both Firefox and IE.

I googled and gooled the subject and only came up with using fleXcroll which would mean adding another jsvascript, CSS, and classes to the template to impement this because there is not plugin available (which I found odd!).

After spending literally 16 hours trying to find a plugin or use a javascript I came up with a simple answer myself. I just created a table and put a div tag inside a cell calling for a scrollbar if the content is over 340 pixels.. here is the code I used:
Code:
<table style="width: 100%;" border="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
 <div style="overflow: auto; width: 100%; height: 340px;">

/* CONTENT GOES HERE */

</div>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>


I did not try just using the div tag without inserting it in a table, but that might work too

After devoting so much time to engineering a solution, I felt silly to say the least, but sometimes the wheel is fine and does not need o be re-invented!
