Can someone please tell me how to acheive and effect similar to the one shown in this script:
http://simplythebest.net/scripts/DHT...ript_106.html#

What I want is for the main content in all of my pages at www.alillywilson.com to have the scroller effect with my own custom graphics beside it.

If I can acheive something similar with CSS (like a normal scrolling box only whent the content overfills the area) but with a custom scroller (graphics instead of the standard scroll bar) I would prefer it.

I know how to acheive this by simply using dynamic HTML, but I would like for it to automatically lauch the scroller when there is a flooding of text.

Thanks . . . Sorry that was so wordy!

Code:
#maincontent {
 padding-top:  18px;
        padding-left: 40px;
 width:  380px;
 height:  240px;
 overflow:  auto;
 background-color: transparent; 
}
It's the bolded line. That won't give you a graphic scroller, but there's no CSS way to do that. You're gonna have to go the Javascript/AJAX (possibly...I don't know AJAX yet) to do that.

No probs.

Basically, all you need to know about the overflow property is that it's meant for any text that would fall outside of your element. Once you understand that, you're fine.

I'm not sure what you mean, Ernesto. Do you mean have an image with scroll buttons?
