Thanks for looking at it.

a) I could not see the reported typo: Ttyle instead of Style.
b) I tried the <P>&nbsp;</P>'s (like about 30 of them), as well as shrinking
   the height of my div to 10 (so it would really, really think its full),
   and still did not get the scrollbars.

Mystified??? Ah well I'll sleep on it. Sometimes that works the best.

Regards,
Melanie
