Two elements with a similar function have a very poor display in amaya. These are the iframe and object elements. Essentially what is happening is that contents that are larger than the display box OVERFLOW other areas instead of being contained and bringing up appropriate scrolling mechanisms. I suspect they both need a mechanism to detect when scrollbars are required and then to display as appropriate.... i just checked and textarea suffers the same way ..... if one adds additional lines to a textbox, the typing area increases rather than pulling up a scrollbar ..... i am using iframe/object element to have long tables display correctly with fixed headers and footers and scrollable body. the syntax exists in html but i know of no browser that uses it in this manner..... head/foot that is so i use object in strict xhtml to do the same but would like it to work in amaya -- -- John Russell, VE3LL@RAC.CA http://home.cogeco.ca/~ve3ll http://home.cogeco.ca/~trains http://home.cogeco.ca/~cipher
