						<p>Provide the distance in pixels between the actual left or top edge of
the element's physical content and the left or top
edge of the visible portion of the content. Setting these properties
allows you to use a script to adjust the scrolling of content within
a scrollable container, such as text in a <span class="literal">textarea</span>
element or an entire document in the browser window or frame. When
the content is not scrolled, both values are zero. Setting the
<span class="literal">scrollTop</span> property to 15 scrolls the document
upward by 15 pixels in the window; the <span class="literal">scrollLeft</span>
property is unaffected unless explicitly changed. The property values
change as the user adjusts the scrollbars. This is important for some
event-driven positioning tasks in IE for Windows because the
coordinate system for event offset measurements are with respect to
the visible area of a page in the browser window. You must add
<span class="literal">document.body</span> scrolling factors to align event
coordinates with body content positions (see the element dragging
example in Chapter 6). Starting with IE 5 for
Windows, the <span class="literal">scrollLeft</span> and
<span class="literal">scrollTop</span> properties are available for all HTML
element objects, but values for unscrollable elements are zero.
