Basic web design help
Hi folks,
I am really hoping someone can help me with this.. Designed a basic website for someone last month. I am a total newb when it comes to the whole design/code thing, I pissed around with CMS and in the end f***ed them all off and used Dreamweaver, Fireworks and Textpad. Here it is: http://www.xpointsolutions.co.uk I am having a problem with this page though: http://www.xpointsolutions.co.uk/products_services.html I have quite a lot of content (mostly text) to put on there now, more than the current depth of the table. The amount of text is stretching out the whole white box and making it really long, whereas I want to keep the box the same size and add a scroll bar, just like this one: I managed to achieve it on the photo's page (here) but I don't know how because someone else helped me with the code. Massively grateful if anyone can help |

overflow: auto;
Is the tag you need I think. I think it needs to be poked in here; <div align="justify" class="style10"> (just above where it says "products and services coming soon" in the source code) so it reads <div align="justify" class="style10; overflow: auto;"> I know nothing at all about this though, so that'll probably just **** it up. Try it and see

That appears to be correct.
