Okay, so I've just finished what could be called the finished product of my layout for a Neopets graphics site. However, the scroll box for the 'Other' section isn't being placed correctly. It won't budge, no matter what I do! Here is the site:
http://www.slothssdb.zzl.org
And here is the code (so far):

CODE

<center><img src="http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee209/MinkaStinka/slothssdbhead.png"> <body background="http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee209/MinkaStinka/hardbg.png">
<div style="width:502px; height:378px; left:400px; top:300px; font: arial 11pt; color:#000000; background color:#FFFFFF position:absolute; overflow:auto;">
<img src="http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee209/MinkaStinka/slothssdbcontenthead.jpg"><p>
The CONTENT will go here, please!
</div>

The other stuff will go here. Links, affies (if I get any, unlikely), topsites, a cbox etc...
</div>

Do you see any errors? If you do, I'd really appreciate it if you pointed them out ! ! ! I searched the area I'm having trouble with (the part with 'The other stuff will go here. Links, affies (if I get any, unlikely), topsites, a cbox etc...') and it looks fine to me, but then again I did write it, but I suppose it COULD be somewhere else in the code I missed.

Your website does not load for me at all. And honestly your layout is poorly coded. You have your body tag coming after pre-defined images. I have never seen such coding before.

Like I said, it's definitely not close to being finished. I didn't learn HTML on sites like these, I learnedd it on a virtual pets site, which has a lot of restrictions so I didn't learn the correct order in which to put things etc...

Your site finally loaded for me and I don't see any scroll bars for the others section at all except for the overall layout. Normally scroll bars appear for iFrames but after reviewing your source codes, I don't see any iframes. Please elucidate a little bit so we can help you better.

sorry I do by see any scroling on your site neather on your coding. The thing I do not understand is are you trying to add a scrollinbar or trying to remove a scrolling bar that does not exist ? (gonna be hard to do)

umm....

I'm not exactly sure what you mean because i don't see any scroll bars..

but instead of

CODE

overflow: auto;

try

CODE

overflow: scroll;

I don't know if that will make any difference at all....

but you can try it, assuming you're trying to make something able to scroll.
