Topic: Help with HTML (TrackInfo Template) (Read 2069 times)

Hi,

I'm trying to modify the "WishYou" trackinfo template to better suit my needs.

Since my knowledge of HTML is zero, I would be very grateful if someone could help me to add vertical scroll bars to the lyrics cell. I tried using:

WIDTH=55% HEIGHT="200" OVERFLOW=SCROLL VALIGN=TOP

but it didn't work.

Thanks in advance for any help.

The last table definition

is repeated some 45 times after the last one. Don't ask me why... that's how the author did it

Try This:

<div style="overflow: auto;" >TRACKINFO_INSERT_LYRICS</div>

EDIT:
Didn't work as expected (probably my fault anyway) but don't worry... I've just modified another one that already had the scrolling lyrics cell (Beta)

Thanks for your help, datdude.

make sure you put that line of code in between the <td height="248" width="50%"> <div style="overflow: auto;" >TRACKINFO_INSERT_LYRICS</div></td> and assign that table cell a height and width and the scroll should work.
