How can I turn off scrolling if I know that I don't need it on a webpage?
Posted by jerothe in 
I have encountered this before here at work. A freelance programmer was working a site that had frames and was database drive. Some of the pages he was working on would fit fine in the screen, but he still had a scrollbar for whatever reason.
If you know a specific page that you don’t want scrolling on, try this;
Add to your style sheet for a global change on every page:
<style type=”text/css”>
<!–
body {overflow:hidden;}
–>
</style>
Or as in inline style:
<body style=”overflow: hidden;”>
By default IE puts a vertical scrollbar on every page even when it doesn’t need it. That doesn’t explain anything in regards to scrolling bugs and frames per say, but it is a fix.
