Always turning off horizontal scrolling in an iframe

Hello, Is there any way to guarantee that the horizontal scrollbars in
an iframe are always turned off but the vertical scrollbars appear when
needed? Ideally, I'm looking for a solution on IE6+ and Netscape 7+,
but am open to any single-browser solutions.

Thanks, - Dave

How do you expect for the user to see your content when it's wider than
the viewport if you do that?

Make sure your content is never as wide as the iframe.

Hi, Is it possible to disble horizontal scrolling using CSS? I want to try and use two backgrounds, one tiling vertically and part of the body background, which will not force scrolling, but one that will be part of a table stretching of to the right, which will force unwanted horizontal scrolling. How is this written in the stylesheet? Cheers Burnsy

How to tell if a horizontal scrollbar is present? I only want to use scrollTo if horizontal scrollbar is present. window.scrollbars.visibility doesn't specify which scrollbar is present, so it gives a false result if there is vertical scrollbar but not horizontal scrollbar. TIA, Anna

My web site is not particularly theme-based, but it contains an Art Gallery I'd like to display in a different perspective. I would like to horizontally scroll it, rather than vertically - as if the viewer is virtually "walking" through the gallery. I'm just attempting this to have this part of the page be different. Is horizontal scrolling okay, or will it throw our browsers into chaos and viewers into insanity? If horizontal scrolling...

I have a user control that needs to allow vertical scrolling but not horizontal scrolling. In the user control's resize event, I need to adjust the size of all the children controls. For this to work correctly, I need the AutoScroll to not enable the horizontal scrollbar. After researching MSDN, I found the HScroll which can be used to disable horizontal scrolling when the AutoScroll mode is enabled. However, when I disable HScroll,...
