How to create a scroll box?

How to create a scroll box?
Posted 2021-09-16 09:54:24
Hi, I need help creating a scroll box. Is that possible on site? Whenever I try methods using HTML guides the text just exits the box and looks..weird.

Example:

As you can see, once there's enough text in this box, the box will grow scroll bars... that's why we call it a scroll box!






Code used from online guide:
< div style="height:100px;width:100px;border:1px solid;overflow:auto;" >
As you can see, once there's enough text in this box, the box will grow scroll bars... that's why we call it a scroll box!
< /div >

That should work, I was messing around with the code trying to get it to work as well, and even tried some scrolling box codes that I have made that work on other sites, and it's still not working. I'm not sure why.

The code is correct. The forums just don't allow the overflow property (which is what lets it scroll). You can make scroll boxes on your profile, though, but it needs to be with css.
