i got a scroll bar that would work with my site by editing an entryblog. i got this
<div style="width: 150; height: 50; overflow: auto"><font size=1 face=arial><center> Type text here, if it gets long enough it will scroll just like thiiis </center></div></td> <td width=150 height=135></td></tr><tr><td width=400 height=1 colspan=3></td></tr></table> but my problem is that when i enter in the html in the text area (i want it to show up as text to be copy & pasted, not actualy work), the background that i made the html gets put into the page. how can i add the html i want to put out as a text in the scroll bar? |

 NO. I'm not 13. or 14. or 15. or 16. Group: Member Posts: 4,616 Joined: Jul 2004 Member No: 30,577 |
Do you mean you want an area to put HTML? You have to use the text area code.
CODE <TEXTAREA cols=40 rows=10> YOUR HTML HERE </TEXTAREA> You can replace the 40 and 10 with your own numbers. 'Cols' makes it wider or skinner, and 'rows' makes it longer or shorter. |

but thats where my problem is. i've tried that code before, but the site im on wont allow it. i'm just starting out on html & have no clue on how to make a whole site with it, just images. is there any other code, or a way to make the html i want to give out a code?

.... Okay, if that doesn't work you've got something going on, 'cause thats a very basic code.
Mayhap you should try validating your code? Mmm... And giving a link so people can see if something is wrong. [ http://validator.w3.org ] |

i think it might just be because its a piczo site (told u, VERY basic). i have barley any knowlege of html, so should i stil venture out there & make the site on a host that is more html based & less click & drag? & what are some good & easy hosts (free too lol)

Easy...? Okay.... I must recommend these places ::
[ http://www.freewebs.com ] [ http://www.geocities.com ] Hm, it also might pay to look through these ones :: [ http://www.free-webhosts.com/free-domain-hosting.php ] Oh, and maybe also check through the Big Book of Resources' free hosting section. |
