The current jspwiki css stylesheets are developed such that the content always fits within the width of your screen. If not, overflow is shown with scrollbars at the bottom of the wide content. (table, image, ...) And no scroll-bars are shown at the bottom of your browser window.
You could of course design your own skin / stylesheet (eg "Wide plainVanilla") which fits to wide content beyond the with of the screen. In that case, the scrollbar would be shown in the browser window. But as Janne indicated, current pointing devices often allow you to scroll withouth using scrollbars, so their positions should not bother you. dirk On Tue, Aug 26, 2008 at 2:17 PM, Janne Jalkanen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi! > > I deleted the page before I read this, because it looked like testing > (and testing should go to sandbox.jspwiki.org). > > The scroll bars come from the browser.
