   My site is located here: http://cincynews.net

   Here's my problem: Each post will contain a video clip and text. I want to format the text with a div, but can't do so without also formatting the video clip.

   Specifically, I want the text to scroll, a feature that ordinarily is possible like this:
   <div style="
   width: 400px;
   height: 250px;
   overflow: scroll;">
   "My text ..."
   </div>

   However, as I say, it's not working out that way. When I try the inline div above, nothing happens, even though I place the text in the proper place within the document.

   How do I solve this problem?

   why not create a .scroll in your css and apply it as a div class with those values to where you need to?

   I think I tried that without success.

   It seems the only way to apply css to the text is within the post element, but the problem with that, as I say, is that it includes the video which means the video falls within the scroll box.
