I'm running Windows7 and if I dock IE8 to one side of my desktop there's no 
scrollbar to allow seeing all the content on the page. The vertical scrollbar 
is present.  Is there a setting smoewhere that will correct this? Here's a 
sample URL:

What program are you using to "dock" the IE window?

You imply the vertical scollbar is still present so you can see up and down, 
but the horizontal scrollbar is missing so you can't see left to right?  
Increase your screen resolution.

It probably knows your screen size.   E.g. pressing F11 makes horizontal 
scrollbars unnecessary for me.

I think it's the fault of that website. I don't get the horizontal scrollbar 
on that page either, but other sites, such as Amazon, do have it when IE is 
docked to either side. Even if I just resize the IE window, there's no 
horizontal scrollbar on your link.

To bwatkins0312: Windows 7 is the program used for docking. Use the Windows 
key+ the right arrow to dock to the right side of the screen. Screen 
resolution doesn't have anything to do with it in this case.

Complain to the web page's owner.  They deliberately chose NOT to allow
scrolling.

<iframe ... scrolling="no"></iframe>

If the Zoom Ratio allows a page to fit on the screen without the need to 
scroll to the side, the scroll bar will go away.

Hi

They have this code in there site 
frameborder="0" width="400" scrolling="no"></iframe></p>*

Thats what causing it not to work, it is not a setting you can change.

Against my better judgement, I followed the link you gave.

The developer is an idiot, he/she left the horizontal scroll out of his/her 
code.

If I view the page at 100% on a wide screen monitor, there is no need to 
scroll at 100% Zoom. What the developer did not accomodate is a 4:3 display 
or a Zoom Ratio that causes the right side margin to go off the screen.

My original answer remains, if the page fits within the window, the scroll 
bar will go away -- assuming the page was written properly.

Visit a well-regarded Website -- Yahoo, MSN, Google, etc. -- and experiment 
with setting the Zoom Level. Also switch between Normal Window and 
Maximized, and drag the sides in and out of the Normal Window.

The fact that you notice this on some sites but not others indicates the 
sites themselves are causing the problem.

Yeah, I saw that.

I can't imagine why a developer would use that line of code without also 
constraining the size of the window and the space that the page demands to 
display properly. But, some developers know more than they understand, I 
suppose.

sorry i actually tried to delete my comment as i was only repeating
what someone had already said. Doesnt make any sense though, i would
guess its just a bad theme there using.
