Scroll Content inside a cell or layer

Hi,

I have built an HTML page, and I want to modify a cell or create a layer,
where content will be placed in. I would like to know if I can embed a whole
HTML page inside this cell or layer and if there is a possibility to scroll it
horizontally or vertically by pushing certain buttons. Thank you.

But it's not used often.

There are a variety of scrollers available from the PVII site -
http://www.projectseven.com/

or from Marja Ribbers-de Vroed's site
http://www.flevooware.nl/dreamweaver

I dislike such things, as they are cosmetic fluff with little practical
benefit (in my opinion).

Yes, it's possible.

OK, I won't be a smartass, just couldn't resist since you never asked
"how". ;-)

You can use an "iframe" in a cell. See here for info:
http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_iframe.asp
However, iframes don't work in non-W3C DOM compatible browsers, e.g. NN4.xx
So, if that's not an option, you might want to try "scrolling layers",
i.e. any of these:
http://www.projectseven.com/extensio...ller/index.htm
http://www.projectseven.com/extensio...ller/index.htm

You can also use a <div> with a fixed height and make the overflow
scroll with CSS. Or you can look for various javascript or CSS powered
scrollers like e.g. this:
http://www.fourlevel.com/product/scroller/ or search Google or at
www.hotscripts.com

Thank you for your replies. Can I embed to these layers a whole HTML page? Is
this possible?

Also, I would like to know you opinion: I am trying not to use flash to this
site, because we want to insert many information during the next few weeks.
Many developers do not know how to use Flash, so that is why we "need' this
solution. Do you thing that people with Internet Explorer, Apple Safari and
Opera users would have problems with effects like these? Will these effects
make the file dramatically larger than expected and will make download more
diffiult?

Thank you.

Thank you.

With the iframe, you can open an entire html page.

All W3C DOM compatible browsers (meaning browsers that are less than 3-4
years old) will render the iframe without problems, but I don't
understand what that has to do with the flash. Can you explain?

Actually, there nothing to do with flash directly. I jut wanted to have some
scrolling effects on the page and many of us supported that it is preferred to
design them on flash. That's why.

Also, do you know a webpage to read everything needed for the iframe inside a
cell? Thank you.
