Unruly Blogrolls

*Update* The revised code below works on Imagined Community. I have some hopes that it may, therefore, work elsewhere as well. Apologies for any confusion. */Update*

The full, unadulterated blogroll takes up considerable space in the sidebar. Shani suggested that we look for a scrollable option, and, by Jove, I think I've found one:

<!-- Blogpower scrollable blogrolling code begins -->
<div style="width: 150px; height: 250px; overflow: scroll; border: solid thin gray;">
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"
src="http://rpc.blogrolling.com/display.php?
r=e55ad1d2d72ae49253ccd8343b7b2fd8">
</script>
</div>
<!-- Blogpower scrollable blogrolling code ends -->


Which should give you something like this:

• A Conservative Blogs


• A Young Conservative


• Adelaide Green Porridge


• An Insomniac


• Andrew Allison


• As a Dodo


• Bel is thinking


• Calum Carr


• Central News


• Chicken Yoghurt

Blogger won't let me use Javascript within the body of a post, so the above box actually contains an HTML blogroll, just to show it should work for both options; simply use the div tags I provide above immediately before and after the code for the blogroll itself.

For those of you who know CSS, you can play about with the sizes and colours of the box and its border, as well as how the code contained is displayed. The key attribute is overflow: scroll which gives you the scroll bar option. Hope this helps tidy up your sidebars. Let me know how you get on.

* Edited 19/5/2007 to reflect the new URL for the HTML blogroll code.
