scrollbar on blog area, i need to know... Options

[captainobvious]

Yes, this is my FIRST post on here and I apologize if there are any posts like this on here...i've looked. There seems to be none that I know of, exactly. I was just asking if I could have some help with something. I want all of my blog entries to be in one area with a scrollbar. And all of the scrollbars on my Xanga to be white w/ black arrow and shadowing. I used to know how to do this code, but it's a little different when it comes to doing it on a blog as compared to a website.

hmm....i think a blog/website works with the same code? did you try extending the blog space

Here's an excerpt from sweetxsimplicity's skinning tutorial:

Make the width in this part of the CSS stylesheet smaller, this will make your blogging space (not your div layer) smaller, so you won't have to scroll horizontally.

CODE

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com -->
table.blogbody {
/* this edits the other the place where the  blog is */
background-color:transparent;
family-font: FONT FAMILY;
BORDER: #COLOR CODE #px solid;
width:###px; /*<-- make the number you entered for the width here smaller*/}
<!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

Put a unclosed div at the end of your custom header with a style="overflow:auto;" and the width and height

use this code, and put it before your css.

<div style="position:absolute; margin-left:#px; margin-top: #px; border: none; width: #px; height: #px;background: transparent;overflow: auto">

adjust the width and height to however big you want your blog area to be. adjust the margin left and margin top to where your blog is positioned on your page. experiment with the numbers and move it around so that you get it where you want it to go.
