I would like to put a scollbar in my page so that people would not see all the comments in my commentbox and would have to scroll down. I do not want to add an iframe or a textarea to do this. How can i do this?

#div1 {overflow:scroll;}

The scrollbar won't display if there's no overflow.

Set the proper height to DIV.
#comment {height: 300px; overflow: auto}
Will show scroll bar when the content overflow of parent (i.e, more than 300px height).
