comments stretch Options

[gamachan]

you know how there is that code to resize comment images to unstretch your comment box? is there a code to put breaks in text so it doesnt stretch the box? or is there a code where i can put the comments in a text box instead of a scrollbar?

edit: im really sorry it double posted

Sadly no. What do you mean textbox ? The only one around is a scrollbox .

[gamachan]

i mean like, i want to put it in a box without scrollbars so that all the text is squished back into how its supposed to be. my friends left me long comments because i have not seen them in forever and when i put it in a scrollbox it was still huge and it had to have a bottom scrollbar which i didnt like.

[freeflow]

Oh, nope sorry. Its just the scrollbox.

[gamachan]

hmm. its just frustrating because it looks fine in internet explorer, like there are breaks in the text and it doesnt stretch but mozilla firefox is my main.

another question. is there a way to lock table sizes so they dont stretch?

[freeflow]

Not really. You can make them smaller, btu nothing stops them from strecthing. There are just methods to keep them small like hiding/resizing videos/etc. But nothing to keep them from going past a certain width. Because your friends who post comments, can always stretch them.

Yea sometimes layout codes do it fine, in Internet explorer, by making it go to another line, but not firefox.

Technically you can resize images that people comment you with all to one specified width (so they don't stretch out the div)

.comments img {
width:300;}

Then you'd have to go back and specify the width of the display pictures so those aren't affected

.comments td img {
width:80;}

thanks emotaku, but i was asking about text page stretching. how do i get my scrollbar for my friends/comments to look like this? http://www.createblog.com/scripts/download.php?id=91

You can't in firefox. Because in firefox, safari, and other browers like that you can't make your scrollbars a color. They have to stay default.

For Ie , use the following, but the background color for each one except arrow. Add between style tags.

CODE

scrollbar-arrow-color:######;
scrollbar-track-color: ######;
scrollbar-shadow-color: ######;
scrollbar-face-color:######;
scrollbar-highlight-color:######;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color:######;
scrollbar-3dlight-color:######;}

Chances are, gamachan, the person who took that screenshot's theme (for Windows) already looks like that (so any scrollbar they see automatically looks like that, etc). I'm sure you can code one though to look like it, unfortunately editing the scrollbar is a bit complicated and people with Firefox don't even see scrollbar tweaks.

[gamachan]

yeah. i give up. thanks very much though
