Ok now im new here but have done html for a long time now. But for awhile i stopped and kinda got out of it. Well life pushed me back into it with my new school. I am currently consrtucting a website for my class of 2005 and i am having much trouble.

Yea i know its on crappy lycos now but im currently getting hosting. Now here is my problem out of many. First off you see that big yellow box in the middle? Well thats where my information is going to go. Now i made the layout to fit 1024 by 768 perfectly so i want a scroll bar to the right of the yellow box for it wont go off page. You understand? So how do i insert a scroll bar? Next question is what should i put in the little yellow box to the left? Yea it says date and time for now but i wanna know what i can put instead. I dont think a poll will fit there even thou i really want one. Well any more suggestions will be kool. Thanks for your help and i hope you can help me.

P.S. i need th answer soon cause school starts on monday and if i dont have it done then im dead. Thanks for helping!

I'll give you a hint... you want an iframe. Do a search within the forum and you'll get plenty of info about how to make them.

I'm too busy to do this for you (not to mention you're not going to learn anything) but I can help steer you in the right direction.

iframes are similar to regular frames in that you can open a second webpage within a regular one. Here is an example of the basic code for it...

<iframe width=150 height=200 src="whatever.html" name="main"> </iframe>

Here is a good tutorial that should help to get you started...

I don't have YIM or AIM here at work (Jason) but I have worked around with your setup and IFrame. I'll post it at my personal site and give you the URL. Have a look see, but do understand, you will have to redo the 'cutting' up of your main image, I was only trying to work out the codes. Although, also take Webmarkart's advice, it's not great to have someone do your stuff for you, but we were discussing this last night and I will get you started. In the meantime, make sure you take some time and look and understand what is going on with the codes and how things are set up. There isn't always going to be someone around to help you out ;)

**now remember, you WILL have to tweak it abit to get it the way you want.

**Also remember, the image was cut up right, but I save the sides twice as the left and right, so that's why when you look at this URL, the image may appear abit odd ;p

**I inserted some comments into the code, so make sure to look see.. and remember also, that even though the scrollbars are blue, you can easily change that.

I'll try and be online tonight if you need help.
