How to make browser scroll bar always visible?

Hello,

Is there a way to make the browser scroll bar, the one on the right
which makes page go down and up, always visible?

Thanks,
Miguel

body { overflow: scroll; }

This will create a horizontal scroll bar, too, even when not needed.

The scroll bars may look light gray when they are passive (not needed
because the content fits).

And what about using:
html {height:100.1%; }

Is this a good approach?

Thanks,
Miguel

It doesn't create a scroll bar on Mozilla. On IE, the scroll bar is there
anyway. So what's the point?

Simple,

I am using AJAX ... and sometimes when some content is refreshed the
page becomes shorter which in some cases originates the scroll bar to
appear and disappear making all page to "shake" ...

Thanks,

I have a form designed as a Continuous form which displays one record per line. Taking account of the header and footer and the size of the screen, I can display 30 records at a time. I can see other records by scrolling up or down with either the scroll bar on the right of the screen, or the up and down arrows which are above and below this scroll bar; or I can use the scroll wheel

When you have a large table, you have to scroll the vertical and/or horizontal scroll bar(s) to read the table contents <td> tag. But the problem is you can't see the column header <th> tag when you scroll down the vertical scroll bar. So how do I make <th> tag always stay on the window/frame. This is similar to spreadsheet Excel, the scroll bars (vertical and horizontal) will not effect the column headers.

Hi, I have a problem with a current project and the scroll position. I have an AJAX enabled website using Visual Studio 2005 and ASP.Net 2.0. The project also uses masterpages. On the page in question, there is a search section in an AJAX update panel, situated on the left hand side. Upon submitting criteria and pressing a button, the results are displayed on the right hand side of the page.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
