I was just looking around on my site and then realised that one of my main pages does not have a scroll bar on the side. The contents is too large to fit on a normal page so should have a scroll bar on the side. Other pages similar to this do have the scroll bar but this one does not. I had a look on other browers and it does the same thing. Does anyone know to right this problem? It's happened on my most important page as well.

It's happened on this page


thanks

Very strange, but the problem is being caused by the fixed postioning on div#workwrap. As soon as I removed that the scrollbar came back.

However it did push the entire page in from the edges a bit so I added margin:0 to the body to take things back to the edge.

Thankyou!

I had a look at the 'div#workwrap' tag you mentioned faulty. I had a look at the external css page.

div#workwrap {
position:absolute; (The postion was on fixed I changed it absolute)
left:0px;
top:0px;
width:100%;
height:100%;
z-index:2;
background-image: url(images/aaabackgroundforwebtopgreen.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat-x;


I changed the position from fixed to absolute and now everything is fine. thankyou again!

Glad to help. I hadn't realized the fixed positioning could cause a scrollbar to disappear so I learned something new myself.
