hey use a code box next time.uhm i think you need to adjust these number

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br />/* change these numbers, make them add up to 100 or less*/ <br />table { <br />width: 55%; <br />margin-left: 38%; <br />margin-right: 2%; <br />margin-top: 20%;<br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

it says you could change it? im not sure but im trying.

[*Libertie*]

Get rid of the percentages; it won't show up right in the resolution I'm using.

Try:

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><br />table {<br />width: 525px;<br />height: 500px;<br />margin-left: 60px;<br />margin-top: 190px;<br />overflow: auto;<br />}<br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

I added a height and changed the pixels to percentages. I have no idea how good that will look, but that's a start. You can change the numbers to adjust where the box goes.

Also, you should be using Generator, not Disjointed. Add this code somewhere in the style tags:

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- <br />table, tr, td, .shadowed {<br />background: transparent;<br />}<br />--><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

thanks for the help but i still cant get a scrollable box on my livejournal i dont know if someone could send me a re written code or something it would be helpful ummmm yeah thanks again

Did you change the style of your livejournal to generator.
Because I'm looking at your journal right now, and it's still disjointed.

If you do not change it to generator, it will not work properly.

when i changed to generator everything went whack so i am using a code from CB previously i was using one that i found on a random website i am still havin trouble with this code that i am using from this site

thanks you pros prob get all sh*ted off with us newbies asking simple stuff all the time

[jordanriane]

Well, if you're going to use ANY code from CB it has to be left on generator. That's usually the style preference for all coding made for layouts.

If that doesn't work out, ljlayouts.org should have some premades with a scrollbar in it, that you would work off of.

once again thank you
