hi. probably a simple question for you guys. can you recommend a site that has info on how to create a page with "mini, scrollable windows" within the page? here's an example:
http://www.mediainspiration.com/
those aren't frames, right? i'd be very surprised if they are frames.
anyway, thanks for any suggestions you might have!

Those are some kind of frames, called iframes.

i just took a closer look at the site you recommended and it's awesome. so full of good info. thanks again!!!
fyi, you can also use stylesheets if you don't have a need for getting the content from another file.
just put your stuff in a <div> tag and specify, in the stylesheet, the height of the div, and then put overflow: auto in the stylsheet for the div.
hey, thanks for that tip. i didn't realize i could use stylesheets to create those. i'll give it a try! (btw, is there any advantage or disadvantage to using stylesheets vs inline forms in your opinion?)
Stylesheets are awesome! Lol, i personally suggest that. It helps separate the formatting too, so everything looks neater.
