Jan 22, 2013 01:44 PM|LINK

I have a checboxlist item that has a Y scrollbar... but how do i remove this, so it shows all the items with the scrollbar... there isn't many in the first place

<asp:CheckBoxList ID="CheckBoxList1" runat="server"
                          DataSourceID="FaithGroup" DataTextField="DESCRIPTION"
                         DataValueField="DESCRIPTION" AppendDataBoundItems="True">

                         <asp:ListItem value="All" Selected="True">All</asp:ListItem>

                    </asp:CheckBoxList>

You should be able to handle this through CSS by using the "overflow" property (or overflow-y for vertical scroll bars) :

<!-- Apply the overflow-y: hidden style to the CheckBoxList container -->
<asp:CheckBoxList ID="CheckBoxList1" runat="server"
                  DataSourceID="FaithGroup" DataTextField="DESCRIPTION"
                  DataValueField="DESCRIPTION" AppendDataBoundItems="True"
                  style="overflow-y: hidden">
                         <asp:ListItem value="All" Selected="True">All</asp:ListItem>
</asp:CheckBoxList>

You may also be able to use overflow: auto as well. If the above suggestion does not work, try wrapping your entire CheckBoxList within a <div> with one of the mentioned styles :

<div style='overflow-y: hidden;'><!-- or possibly overflow:auto; -->
    <asp:CheckBoxList ... >
         <asp:ListItem ... ></asp:ListItem>
    </asp:CheckBoxList>
</div>

Can you post what the rendered HTML Source looks like? Also did you try wrapping that entire area with a <div> using the appropriate property?

<div style='overflow-y: hidden;'>
      <asp:CheckBoxList ID="CheckBoxList1" runat="server" DataSourceID="FaithGroup1" DataTextField="DESCRIPTION"DataValueField="DESCRIPTION" AppendDataBoundItems="True">
            <asp:ListItem value="All" Selected="True">All</asp:ListItem>
       </asp:CheckBoxList>
</div>

You may have to explicitly specify your dimensions if you use the above method :

<div style='overflow-y: hidden; height: 300px; width: 400px;'>
       <!-- Your Checkbox List -->
</div>

You'll need to apply those CSS properties to whichever container will hold your CheckBoxList (your Panel may be the culprit) :

<!-- Changing the ScrollBars property to Horizontal may fix your issue altogether -->
<asp:Panel ID="Panel1" runat="server"
                    Height="116px" Width="245px"
                    BorderStyle="Solid"
                    BorderWidth="2px"
                    Direction="LeftToRight"
                    ScrollBars="Horizontal"
                    BackColor="#CCCCCC"
                    Style="display: none">

         <asp:CheckBoxList ID="CheckBoxList1" runat="server"
                           DataSourceID="FaithGroup1" DataTextField="DESCRIPTION"
                           DataValueField="DESCRIPTION" AppendDataBoundItems="True">

                           <asp:ListItem value="All" Selected="True">All</asp:ListItem>
         </asp:CheckBoxList>
</asp:Panel>

if not you may need to add the overflow property to your Panel element as well :

<asp:Panel ID="Panel1" runat="server"
                    Height="116px" Width="245px"
                    BorderStyle="Solid"
                    BorderWidth="2px"
                    Direction="LeftToRight"
                    ScrollBars="Auto" 
                    BackColor="#CCCCCC"
                    style="display: none; overflow-y: hidden;">

          <!-- Your CheckBoxList -->
</asp:Panel>

I know that is why I mentioned to add the following to your Panel control that "contains" your GridView :

style="display: none; overflow-y: hidden;"

as shown in the second example above.

this got rid of the scroll-bars... but its not showing all the items... only top 5 selections... there should be another 5-6 items... is it because of the default size set?

Most likely. You can easily adjust the size of the panel to limit the height until you find one that suits your needs :

<!-- Example setting Default Height to 500px -->
style="display: none; overflow-x: hidden; height: 500px;"

<!-- You may also try using height: auto; -->
style="display: none; overflow-x: hidden; height: auto;"
