<div style="height:475px; overflow:auto;" > Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Donec sagittis pede at ligula. Mauris iaculis posuere ligula.

That will get you the basics. The overflow: auto, will make the div scroll if there is more text than the height will allow. If the height of the items inside that container does not reach the specified height, it will not show scroll bars. Hope this helps.
