Got a left column and then the main bit where all teh info is stored..
i need the main bit to have scroll bars..
code:
<table width="98%" height="200" border="1">
<tr>
<td width="24%" valign="top">Left Column</td>
<td name="main" width="100%" height="200" align="left" valign="top" style="overflow: auto;"> test
test<br />
test<br />
test<br />
test<br />
test<br />
test<br />
test<br />
test<br />
test<br />

Dreamweaver does that a lot, don't look at your site using the preview area of dreamweaver, open up the .htm files to see, I had the same problem when I used to use dreamweaver for every site I made.
