CSS Coding Help: Scrolling Text Area

by blogginvixen Posted: 17 years ago 3 replies

Last week I designed and sliced a layout I wanted to use for one of my websites. I opened it up in Dreamweaver to begin working on it but the problem I'm having now is that I have no idea how to get the text area to continue for the length of the whatever is in that area. (I hope that makes sense.) The problem I'm having is that I don't know how to get the sidebar bar images I sliced to repeat for the length of the text area.

If I haven't confused any of you, can you offer any help. I don't mind providing a screen shot if it would help.

Thanks in Advance!

....it's really easy to turn such a small problem into something bigger than it is.
