For some reason this page opens in a new window when linked to from my site,
which is fine, but now there are no scroll bars either eek!
Click to expand...

You have set the overflow as hidden in the opening body tag, but I don't see where there is enough content on
the page to require scrollbars.

Also on the into page:

http://www.bglawns.com/eahorc_main.htm

and the main page:

http://www.bglawns.com/eahorc.htm

The scroll bars are now red, should be blue.
Click to expand...

Open either page and switch to code view.
Scroll to the bottom.
Cut the following tags:

<LINK href="msie.css" type=text/css rel=stylesheet>
<META content="Microsoft FrontPage 5.0" name=GENERATOR>
<META content=FrontPage.Editor.Document name=ProgId>
<META http-equiv=Content-Language content=en-us>
<LINK href="eahorc_main_files/filelist.xml" rel=File-List>

from the the bottom of the page and move them back to the head section where they belong.

These lines should be in the <head> of the page, not in the <body>

<LINK href="msie.css" type=text/css rel=stylesheet>
<META content="Microsoft FrontPage 5.0" name=GENERATOR>
<META content=FrontPage.Editor.Document name=ProgId>
<META http-equiv=Content-Language content=en-us>
<LINK
href="eahorc_main_files/filelist.xml" rel=File-List>

in msie.css look for SCROLLBAR-FACE-COLOR: #c00; this sets the scrollbar to
red in IE, but other browsers ignore it.

Steve,

There is more text there, at least on pages I created in FP. Below the sat
nav coordinates for the venue there should be coordinates for nearby hotels
and fast food places...

I can see them in FP, but not on the webpages.

:
 
Ronx,

I tried that, the bottom of the page now shows:

<HR>

</BODY></HTML>

and the top is now:

<HEAD><TITLE>
eahorc_main</TITLE>
<LINK href="msie.css" type=text/css rel=stylesheet>
<META content="Microsoft FrontPage 5.0" name=GENERATOR>
<META content=FrontPage.Editor.Document name=ProgId>
<META http-equiv=Content-Language content=en-us>
<LINK
href="eahorc_main_files/filelist.xml" rel=File-List>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<META content="Microsoft FrontPage 5.0" name=GENERATOR>
</HEAD>


But the scroll bars are still red in IE7

To be honest this no big deal, I just wanted the scroll bars to match the
blue theme of the site, the lack of scroll bars at all in those other pages
is what really worries me....
 
Did you change the scrollbar colour in msie.css as I indicated?

For the other pages, as I said in another thread, remove from the CSS
everything resembling:
overflow: hidden;
overflow: visible;
