Removing scrollbars from page

My problem is this: I have a web page with frames. I can't get the frame with my scrollbar in it to display correctly without IE adding it's own vertical and horizontal scrollbars. This is because the table with the "thumbnails" is bigger than the frame. How do I make a normal web page not display scroll bars when content goes off the page?

Even if you could take out the scrollbars (scrolling=no in the frame tags, to answer your question), why would you want to? You're stopping your users from seeing all of your content. Bad idea.
But, you're the webmaster, so I assume you know what you're doing and you have an alternate way for them to see the content. Remember that there are still a lot of vision impaired people out there that have their screens at 640x480. -SN

To answer your question: The frame is just a custom made scrollbar that moves a table of thumbnails above it (for my photo album). It only takes up a rect about 80x200 pixels. The scrollbars are a nusance because the thumbnails and scrollbar fit perfectly in the frame vertically. Horizontally the table extends past the right limit of the frame, hence a horizontal scroll bar appears. When the horizontal scrollbar appears the thumbnails and scrollbar no longer fit in the frame vertically so a vertical scrollbar appears, basically messing up the intended effect. I just realized I was putting scroll=no instead of scrolling=no. Thanks for the reply.
