Hello,

I have recently built a text scrolling module for a student, one that 
has all the functions provided by a normal scrolling window, but of 
course allows the student to use their own graphical elements.

The issue i have is that i found it became less than elegant when 
determining how many lines were not in the visible part of the text 
window. In the end i had to work out an average line height so that i 
could move the scroll indicator accordingly ( when using the up/down 
arrows with the scroll by line function ) 
(member.height-member.pageheight / average lineheight ) Problems will 
of course arise if the text field contained lines of differing 
heights.

Has anybody got / seen a module that provides all the usual 
functionality of scroll bars but maybe move adaptable than the one i 
have built.

many thanks,
                   steve
