i wish to grab items from a database and put them in a fixed size ‘container’, which will have a scrollbar. How could i do this so that internally i can still have columns so different field lengths remain alligned within the table?
Either i need some sort of select with formatted columns or i need a table which can be a constant height and you scroll down further to see more results. At the moment ive got a table and the more results i have, the longer my actual whole page is.
well you could use
{overflow-y:scroll;}on a div for the scroll part.Or you could use pagination in you db query, so you only have a set number of results per page if you dont like to scroll.
