Removing iframe Horizontal Scrollbar
Author’s Note (AN): Since I have been getting almost day-to-day hits on this post, I would like to hear from you guys if the simple trick you are about to read works for you. If so, I would highly appreciate it if you leave a comment. Otherwise, you might find the links generated by Google below more helpful than this.
Oh c’mon! A few days ago, I was already about to die trying to remove the freakin’ horizontal scrollbar of the iframe in this fanlisting. The problem is only associated with Internet Explorer. 
The last resort I could do was to compare it line after line with another code that does not show the said scrollbar. So how did it turn out? Well, it turns out, in my case, the only thing that was missing was a line before the DTD (document type declaration). I then remembered that the same thing holds true for the scrollbar colors that are not supported in Firefox. I used to do it before. So anyway, for instance, the first line of the code should not be
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN” “http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd”>
but instead,
<!–remove freakin’ iframe horizontal scrollbar anything goes here (perhaps even a blank line)–>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN” “http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd”>
Whew, glad I did it. And oh, please bear with the title of this post. 
Lately…
- I find the new Voice biscuit ad really awesome. It’s concept is mutants (or should I say from the “Heroes” TV show every entity on earth is talking about).
- Last Saturday was the last day of the Salakayan Festival here in Miag-ao. I went to the plaza for dinner together with my dormmates Julius, McDeansem, Michael, and Rodrigo. We walked our way back to the dorm and happily chatted about animés, Koreanovelas, X-Men and Power Rangers every Friday night then, and Mexicanovelas like Rosalinda and Ruby (Ang Bidang Kontrabida).
- I knew that Spring Waltz in ABS-CBN is the fourth and last installment of the Endless Love series after three years. The first three was shown in GMA namely Autumn In My Heart, Winter Sonata, and Summer Scent.
- Watched Bicentennial Man in ABS last Sunday and cried.
- First long exam in Operating Systems tomorrow. I must do good!
- Today is Ash Wednesday, but I’m not going to the church.
I’m becoming the devil.

Talaga? Fourth and last installment ng Endless Love ang Spring Waltz. Nagyon ko lang nalaman. Ang weird kasi eh, bakit ba sa 2 kasi ipinalabas. Lol. I’m not a fan of koreanovelas, madalang lang akong manood ng mga ganyan, the last koreanovela I watched was Princess Hours.
