Scroll bar gone

[Serpent]

When i enter my webpage i can see all the scrollbars on all pages. I use IE 6 I think. But Lately some visiters are complaining that they dont see a scroll bar on some and all my pages. I think its a IE and browser bug im not sure. I asked what Browser they used and one said Firefox. So i thought oh! it must be a firefox thing. But then I asked another fella and he said he had IE. then i thought how many people actually can see my site properly :eek: Then I asked around and no one could help me so thats why im asking here. :hehe: I used Evrsoft to make my site :weee:

URL= www dot freewebs dot com/fire-serpents = my site...... maybe you will see the same error

Your code needs some work this is jpg of your rulez.html page (http://www.clearviewlodge.ca/tmc/1.jpg)
my resolution.1280x1024 No scroll bar showing on your fsheros.htm fsheros.htm (http://www.clearviewlodge.ca/tmc/3.jpg)

Any idea why this is happening? Is there a code that can stop this from happening?

[tmmoose]

Your problem on page rulez.htm...is <DIV align=center> before your <DIV id=links style
You might want to try using a style sheet CSS.. info. (http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/css/stylesheets-now.html)

thanks man. am i supposed to add that code to all my pages with the news div? Is there any other buggy stuff wrong with my site that you can point out please :)
Also I dunno if this bug was mentioned in this forum. But somtimes when I load up an old web page on evrsoft and i try to edit in the design screen the design sreen flashes and then all my edit work is reverted to the orignal state or it doesn't let you save when you go to the preview button. Now when i edit those kinda pages i have to it 1 step at a time and save every single thing i add which i dont mind doing.

The font you choose has to be installed on the viewers computer for them to see it

Note on the above, there are Javascript "patches" to facilitate non-installed fonts, but you should never rely on them.

The best practice is using fonts that should be on all platforms (or providing a few alternatives to get complete cover). If you must use fonts that aren't installed on the majority of users' PCs then the method usually used is either use images (with an alt) (and GD/PHP can be used to generate these images dynamically as needed), or alternatively to use Flash - with a fallback hidden behind it in case the user doesn't have flash player.

Thx for the info Timmoose.:hellother I think that could be the problem for all my pages because when I make a page In evrsoft i do it all through the design window and dont bother with the code. So I leave TOP and Left at 1 or 0. Hmm this might be a stupid question :smack: but when i upload my HTML pages
(Eg: home.html) to Freewebs I change it to htm. (home.htm) Does that screw up thewebpage? :cons:

Can you not just ask visitors to download the font for the webpage at the enterance page or somthing? :confused:

[PsychoticDude85]

If you want them all to either ignore it or leave, yes. :)

Seriously, people are lazy, you have to cater to them, not the other way around.

EDIT: Also, renaming the file to .htm will not break it, but make sure that no links are pointing to home.html.

Okay im going off the subject a smidge, but does anyone know where i can find a cool or custom looking guestbook or message board that i can easily embed on my site. I found a few my self but im just a beginner and I cant understand what files to upload and what files to rename. And any way im too lazy to look for one myself lol I guess you where right about people being lazy Psychotic lol
