Is it possible to make entries automatically appear in an invisible scroll box?

If so, can somebody please share a code /or tell me how?

Thank you in advance!

I think I know what you're getting at. Unfortunately, having an "invisible" scroll bar is only possible in Internet Explorer. All other browsers like Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Google Chrome, and etc. don't support that feature. However, you can have an "invisible" scroll bar in all browsers if you use Javascript (I would think, since I know you can change the colors and style and whatnot using it). However, I'm not sure if you can use custom Javascript on Blogger.

Also, is there a specific container name that holds all the entries? If so, you could just specify a set height and set an automatic overflow. For example:

Let's say we have a DIV container with an ID of entries that holds all the DIV containers which contain the content of each entry post. So, let's say the markup is something like:
CODE
<div id="entries">
<div>
Here is the entry content for this entry.
</div>

<div>
Here is the entry content for this entry.
</div>

<div>
Here is the entry content for this entry.
</div>

<div>
Here is the entry content for this entry.
</div>
</div>


You'd have to do something like (CSS-wise):
CODE
div#entries {
height: 600px;
overflow: auto;
}


And as far as the Javascript goes, you'd have to check if it's allowed. If it is, you can try searching online for different codes that would suit your fancy.
