hi there, need some help:P i'm building a website for my gaming guild, so far i think i'm doing an alright job. check it out if you want http://binarymafia.org anyways if you clicked the link you can see the pretty artwork that i want to keep. here is my dilema: i want to have text that scrolls down without the background scrolling down. if that makes sense. i also want it to scroll with the scroll wheel if that is at all possible. i'm also going to put pictures and other content in there that i might need to scroll with. i don't know if i can use HTML or Java or flash. i kinda know HTML, but with Java and Flash...i'm completely lost:P however! i tend to have a knack for copying and pasting free scripts

anyways could you help me guys?!

Position a <div> absolutly to where you want your text to start, give it a width and height, and add overflow: auto; to it.

for example

Code: Select all

div#content
{
  position:absolute;
  left:200px;
  top:300px;
  overflow: auto;
}
