Dude, wrong way around. Fix the validation errors and *then* figure
out why you're seeing XYZ problem...

Or at least that'd be my preferred approach :-)

Hi Kevin

The problem is in the styles.css
You have 
html {

height: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
}

If you change overflow to visible the scroll bar appears.

I've tried everything.

Heres the site if anyone want's to check it out.

RE: [WSG] no scrollbars in ff

2009-06-09 Thread Foskett, Mike
Did you try this from the articles comments?

:root {overflow-y:scroll}

I gave it a quick test and it appeared to work well in Firefox and Chrome.

[WSG] no scrollbars in ff

2009-06-08 Thread kevin mcmonagle

Whats the problem with firefox and vertical scroll bars.
I have a centered layout here most of the pages would require scrolling 
but no bars show up in ff.


I've tried all the solutions on this page:

http://hicksdesign.co.uk/journal/forcing-scrollbars-now-even-better

but no use.

Any suggestions?
