I located an article on this site that provides lengthy explanation on how to do this but my concern is if I copy and past the code and it is not placed exactly right my browser is non functional. All I want to do is widen vertical scroll bar, it seems crazy I have to know code to do this. ANy other suggestions would be very much appreciated. It is very frustrating.
