[Helen]

OK, I have a couple of pages on my site that doesn't need a scroll bar yet I
have the boxes at the top and bottom of my page. Does anyone know how to get
rid of them?

If you mean the grayed-out boxes, no you can't get rid of them.

Thanks, but I think I got it sorted.What it was was that I have my scrollbar
to coordinate with the rest of the site but some of the pages do not need a
scroll bar as the content doesn't fill the whole page, so I was left with a
box at the top and at the bottom which is the bit with the arrow in it so I
just changed the colour of the arrow box. Seems to of worked.

Be aware that it will only work in IE.

On *your* system.

How do you know it does not fill the whole page on *my* system?

Which only works in IE and will really annoy anybody who *needs* those
scroll bar arrows.

mmm....hadn't thought of that! I'm so used to sorting the site at 1024x768
screen resolution now.
Any ideas on how to get rid of them boxes then for those that have that
screen size?

Well it's only on like three pages, and as people know where the scroll bar
is and they should still be able to use it.

So, whats the problem? Every other page in the world displays on IE with an
empty scroll bar. That is simply how IE works.

Would they? I really don't thinkso. It there is no visual scroll bar over
there --> I think the majority of people would think that there is no scroll
bar.

You're probably right. I guess I'm just not used to seeing them as I've had
a domain redirecting thing which didn't show them but they now show them
since I've moved my domain to my server. Oh well, guess it isn't that
important.
