[SOLVED] Scroll bar question


amalosoul

Recommended Posts

I have a div and a text that overflows the width of this div. I wanted to do two things

1. the text to be written on the next line if it does not fit (longer than the width)

2. remove the vertical scrollbar (or make it invisible...) in case the newly arranged text exceeds the height of the div, but still allow the user to scroll the text by the use of the mouse scroll

 

Can this be done?

 

Thank you very much!

what if the user doesn't have a scroll wheel? (like many mac users) how do they then view the rest fo yoru content.

 

Its all well and good being 'able' to do things but when these things restrict the useability of your site then its pointless...

 

Just because you know how to use it on yoru browser doesn't mean others will or that their software/hardware can actually perform what you are basically requiring them to do.

 

I promise you its not good practice to remove the standard controls people EXPECT to have available to them inorder to view information on a page.
