I have just used the new Photoshop CS2 to create a Flash Web Gallery. While
I am quite content with the funtionality of the gallery, viewers that have
lower screen resolutions say that the thumbnail images extend below the
page, and there are no scroll bars. I would like to know how to add the
code to force scoll bars. I have created a test gallery to illustrate my
point below. Any help would be appriciated.

Scroll bars are a system function, so unless you have somehow turned them
OFF, and if the page is long enough (or wide enough) to require them, then
you will get them without doing anything.

In my opinion, using Flash the way you have is unacceptable....
 
Remove this from the style:
overflow: hidden;

It's applied to html which is causing the scrollbar not to be drawn.

According to newsgroupies, the following are unacceptable:

1. HTML in any e-mail or newsgroup posting.
2. Flash in a Web site.
3. Most scripting in a Web site.
4. ActiveX controls.
5. Colors other than the default browser colors.

The list goes on and on. If every developer were to follow these
guidelines, we'd all still be using 2.0 level browsers.

My opinion is that Flash is cool as hell. I think people should use it as
they see fit. I personally don't want to see the Internet held back.
Embrace technology and move forward!

But only when it adds benefits for the users, if it add no benefit, then what good is it?

Also developers tend to forget who they are building a site for, and it is not them, it is the
expected visitors!

Make the visitor happy and comfortable with the site and they will return and tell others...

Try removing the height tags from html and body:
height: 100%;

Height is determined by the object(s) shown in the browser.
There is no reason to specify 100% for html and body, because what are you specifying 100%
of .....
infinity... ??
