Hi can anyone point me in the right way
i'm using this in one of the cells:
<TD style="OVERFLOW-Y: auto; WIDTH: 508px; HEIGHT: 303px" width=508

background=images/del_mm_22.jpg colSpan=9 height=303 rowSpan=2>
and want all the results from the list or view page to be scrollable with that cell.
after using above tag code i just dump all the <form> code after ... but no luck... my lable tayout is all mixed up.
any help would be great

Probably you can use <iframe> inside a table cell to have cell content scrollable.
I'm not sure if scrollable cell content makes user experience any better.

thanks for the pointer... the only thing with <iframe> is that is only allows you scroll an external html page in that cell... but after playing around with it i got it working. i wanted to have all the results from the list page (with is in a form) to be in one scrollable cell... this is how i did it just incase any one else wanted to know...
<TD style="WIDTH: 508px" background=images/del_mm_22.jpg colSpan=9 height=303 rowSpan=2>
<DIV style="OVERFLOW: auto; WIDTH: 508px; HEIGHT: 303px">
<FORM......
as for the customer experience ... i don't have much of a choice as i have a fix gfx template filled with tables that i have to use...
