    Hi,

    So I’ve not really noticed many websites using iFrames or Divs with scrollbars in websites anymore. I’m thinking of using a DIV to hold an image but I only want to show perhaps the top half of the image, then if people want to see the full image they can scroll the DIV down to see it.

    What do you think? I don’t know why but for some reason I’m thinking this isn’t a good way of doing it, purely because I haven’t seen many sites doing it?

    Thanks

    Ashley

    one word…no. There is a reason you don’t see it on sites. To put it simply…users hate scrolling and if that meant having to view the full image (or should I say that rest of the image while hiding the other part that was in view) then users will surely get aggravated.
