In fact, it IS possible to have a scrollbar within a cell table using a DIV tag like this :

<table border=1>
<tr>
<td>Scrollbar within a table cell</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<div style="height:60;overflow:auto">
Line #1<br>
Line2<br>
Line3<br>
Line4<br>
Line5<br>
Line6<br>
Line7<br>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Works in IE 5.5, don't know if it works in other browsers

Wrong. You CAN have a scroll-bar whith CSS.

height: absolute value;
overflow: auto;

Et voilą.

You can also do it if you use an iframe within a cell of a table. And I think is easier.

Why can't you just use this?

<div style="height:300;width:300;overflow:auto">

It works great in the cell I'm looking at on my page. Just change the "300" value to one that suits the size of the text box you want to scroll.
