Adding scroll to dynamic table

[vikas251074]

I have created dynamic tables whose length depends upon the number of records.
Can I use scrollbar in tables?

My code for creating dynamic table is as follows -

<%
dim conn
set conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.open = "Provider=MSDAORA.1;dsn=ops;password=op;user id=Outpass;Data Source=Intradb;Persist Security Info=True"
set rs = server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
set rs = conn.execute("Select gp_no, per_name, dept from gps")
%>
<script type="text/javascript" >
window.onload = function() { dynamicTableInit(document.getElementById('myTable')); } ;
</script>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<table id="myTable" class="dynamicTable" align="center" border="1" height="400px">
  <thead>
    <tr><th>Gatepass No.</th><th>Name of Person</th><th>Department</th></tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
<%  do while not rs.eof %>
      <tr><td><%=rs("gp_no")%></td><td><%=rs("per_name")%></td><td><%=rs("dept")%></td></tr>
<%    rs.movenext
    loop %>
  </tbody>
</table>

Is line no. 8,9, & 10 really needed?

Thanks and regards,

hi ...

you cannot use a 'native' scrollbar in a table ... but you may use a div and set its overflow-css-property, or implement a custom scroller. or use a paging-mechanism with first 10 records, next etc.

to you other question: what does the function do? have a look at its code ... may be it adds some events for sorting the table or whatever. in case you! don't need it ... then its not needed ;) ... why do you have used it at the moment?

kind regards

All this contents have been collected from net searching. I think this line may be usefull thats why I added these lines.

Now I got the solution of scrollbar by adding below line
[HTML]<div align="center" class="myDiv" style="width: 520px; height: 435px; padding:4px; border: 0px ; overflow:auto ">[/HTML]
