[Pro] Scrolling Markup Item

Freeway
1

I think this has been answered before on someone else’s thread but i’ll be damned if i can find it.

I have an Html Markup item on my page with a php include instruction. The width is fine and the content wraps itself but i cannot seem to control the vertical scroll.

No matter what i do to add the scrolling instruction it just won’t do it!?

I would appreciate any advice on this.

May thanks in advance,

Adam

Is it online somewhere that we can see the underlying code?

Adam, on the html item with the id “pulsemarkup” use the Inspector to set
the overflow to “scroll” and that should work.

Hi Ernie,

I’ve done that already (plus the hidden and auto options)
Just tried again and it doesn’t apply the code???

Stumped!

Draw an HTML box where you want the code to appear. If your PHP will emit block-level HTML tags (not just text or inline content) then use an instance of the CrowBar Action instead of a markup item. If your PHP does not emit any block-level tags (if it’s safe to put your content inside a P tag) then you can use a regular Markup Item instead.

Now you can style the outer HTML box using the Inspector, and get the scroll behavior etc. that you want.

Hi Walter,

Don’t know why i didn’t think of that… it’s been a long week!

Didn’t need the crowbar action but i will bear that in mind for the future.

Just needed to apply my text class to the html box again.

The content is being updated by my customer using pulsecms.
A nice easy cms if anybody wants a recommendation.

Thanks again for your help Walter and for Dave and Ernie too for taking the time.

Cheers,

Adam

Forgot to mention – this must be used inline within the HTML item you drew, as would the Markup Item if you do use that.
