How to Use a Scrollbar Menu on MySpace
A scrollbar enables you to see all of the content in a confined area. When designing a page layout on MySpace, you can put a menu in such a location. By so doing, you provide a navigation that links to other websites you want your visitors to see. HyperText Markup Language (HTML) and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) can work together to create the menu you want. Use the modules tool in your MySpace account to enter your scrollbar menu code.
