How do I make a scroll bar?

#1

Hi, people!
I'm totally new to web design. I've hashed together a site ( www.tonkin-motorcycles.com ) but someone has written to me to say they can't see my nav bar to the bottom as they have a screen of 600x800 whereas I built it on my pc with a size of 1024x768. I assumed a scroll bar would appear automatically, but it didn't. Any ideas on how I should do it (I'm sure it's obvoius - humour me!) will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!!

Yes, dump the frames. Absolutely no reason for them in a design like this.

For what it's worth, I get the scroll bar.

How is that possible since scrolling is turned off in the frame?

Shouldn't you tell him to dump the frames? OK - I'll do it for you.

DUMP THE FRAMES! 8)

Hi Murray, Dear

Thought I'd told you...I went camping for 2 weeks in the
Sierra Nevadas!! Plumas Eureka State Park, to be exact. It was a fantastic
holiday and the place even had a HUGE private handicapped W/C for Danielle to
get her treatment every night. We set the IV bag up on a lantern tripod

It's
amazing what you can do in a pinch!

Sat around in my hammock, read a few
good books, drove to Tahoe, Mount Lassen and a dozen other wonderful places,
ate a seafood buffet in Sparks, Nevada (twice!) and watched my mother set fire
to her own over-hairsprayed hair during what was *supposed* to be a fire safety
lesson on how to "properly" light a match!

It was excellent! It wasn't
Montana...but it was still wonderful.

P.S. I DID tell him to dump the frames! Sheesh!

Diana,

You drove right through Sacramento and didn't stop by to see me! The girls
will be heartbroken! ;-)

LOL! Nope...we decided to go back the same way we came: HWY 395. We always come
back through Sacramento and the scenery down I-5 isn't exactly pretty, ya know?

So we decided to make the trip in 2 days instead of one and go back down
395, which is beautiful (till you get below Bishop).

And speaking of the girls...I'm having my girls tested for AIDS tomorrow and if
they're in the clear, we'll be going to the pound on Thursday or Friday. We
went yesterday and there is a beautiful 3 month old flame point Siamese with an
eye infection that Danielle decided she needed to take care of. Hopefully he'll
still be there! He was only released to be adopted yesterday, so keep your
fingers crossed!

We miss our Puck, but we think that Pixel needs to have a
cat closer to her age to play with so she'll leave poor Moth alone!!

She
tolerates her, but she's an old lady and wants to sleep!

Only blazed through the link quickly. Saw the scroll bar on the right and
assumed that's what was being looked for. Didn't even notice anything amiss
on the left. " Next time don't be so hasty......"
