scrolling div ?

1 New Member
Hi all,
i am newbie here.
I am populating a div element with the data from dbase,much like the google
suggest.Now I have a small problem,ike the div I am populating will
exceed or overflow according to the info which i will collect
from the dbase.So whatever which is below the
suggestion box will be moving down depending on the population in the div.
Could u plz lemme know how could i display the div as a
scrollable displayin only .4 or 5 elements...

Thx and Regards
Kishore

Set a height and width and use overflow: auto, so that when it exceeds the available space, scrollbars appear for the rest of the content.
