ScrollBox v0.6
This just in: ScrollBox.js v0.6
This latest update includes several bug fixes, some performance improvements, and some new functionality. The code has gone through several iterations and is nearly ready to be called stable.
My goal is to implement al of the functionality provided by the browser’s scrollbars. I expect the next release will be feature complete and I’ll have a 1.0 release by the end of the month.
Any feedback at this point would be greatly appreciated.

it seems that if you have a form inside the scrollbox it cannot be submitted. have you run into this at all?

I’ve noticed similar misbehaviors elsewhere. When I wrote this, my needs did not include interactive content within the scrollable area. It seems there is some event watcher that is killing mouse clicks within the panel before they’re allowed to perform certain events. I’ll have to look into this.

I really like this code, I found that where/when I initiated it mattered on pages that had other events, but it does the job very well and the speed is also very good.
I had to add a routine to detect the computed height of the inner area so that it hides the scrollbars and moves the content back into the initiating div if the amount of content doesn’t warrant a scroll, which works very well.
I have not tested it will forms, but for text areas it’s very simple to implement and with a very small footprint.
For me it runs smoothly on Opera,Firefox, IE6 on Win, Firefox on Ubuntu and Firefox, Safari on OS X.
Marvellous stuff!
