Author tables with scollable text?????

Can I create scroll bars in a table? I want to avoid using frames because I
can't manage to get the same display in netscape and explorer so I want to use
just tables. But I want to have a table a specific size with scrollable text.
Can this be done?

Thanks!

I don't know of a way you can create scroll bars in a table, but you could
put the text into a multi-line form field, use an iFrame or maybe a DHTML
scrolling area ( I think there's an extension for this in the Exchange ).

Hope that gets the wheels turning.

Use a layer instead of a table and set the overflow to scroll.
