Default Text scrolling within a webpage - 08-25-2003 , 10:31 AM






Hello,
I am redesigning my website and would like to have the text scroll within
the webpage without the page itself scrolling.... if you understand what I
mean... ;-)
I want a very sleek look and would like to use little arrows that people
could press to see more of the text rather than have a very long page....

How should I go about that? I use DW3. Can it be done????

Thanks for any info!! ;-)
Cat.

It sounds like you want to cram lots of text in to a small area and make the
user scroll more... instead of making use of available space.

Hey: that so-called Greeking is supposed to just fill the space - not
to have the readers rolling in the aisles! Where on Earth did you get
that wonderful drivel from???

(I'll have a portion of the glorious baklava, please...)

yuk - way too sweet for my taste, but I have to admit to be intrigued by the
very idea of an incognito geranium.
