How do I make a frame with a vertical scrollbar but without a horizontal scrollbar?

The only way to have a frame with a vertical scrollbar but without a horizontal scrollbar is to define the frame with SCROLLING=”auto” (the default), and to have content that does not require horizontal scrolling. There is no way to specify that a frame should have one scrollbar but not the other. Using SCROLLING=”yes” will force scrollbars in both directions (even when they aren’t needed), and using SCROLLING=”no” will inhibit all scrollbars (even when scrolling is necessary to access the frame’s content). There are no other values for the SCROLLING attribute.

There is no way to display just one of the two scrollbars (horizontal and vertical) in a frame. They are either, both there (scrolling=”yes”), or both not there (scrolling=”no”). The default setting is scrolling=”auto” which displays scrollbars if the page contents is larger than the frame size.
