  I would like to use both horizontal and vertical scrollbars in the <code /> sections of my code containing pages, for example:

  http://hsymbolicus.wordpress.com/category/teachnyc/

  I have seen such customizations on regular wp pages before and, also, I would like to know how can you customize the vertical scrollbar for particular pages so they show a preset number of pages

  thanks,
  hsymbolicus

  I don’t see horizontal and vertical scrollbars at http://hsymbolicus.wordpress.com/category/teachnyc/

  Could you link to a specific post?

  It’s possible that I can’t see the scrollbars because I’m checking from a different OS and browser. I checked with Firefox 18.0.2 and Chrome 24 on a Mac.

  Can you make sure you are using a supported web browser? See http://browsehappy.com/

  I should have posted a better link in order to make my point:

  this is just code and it doesn’t look right with all that wrapping

  Thanks for the example! What you probably want is to use the source code shortcode. This help page will guide you:

  One of the parameters, wraplines, determines whether scrollbars appear.
