Help How do I make a hidden scroll? (Solved)

[Arnalia]

OK, I know next to nothing about coding and BBC code so bear with my incompetence please. I want to make a simple mobile friendly (I'm on android and use duckduckgo) text box with border to rp (not a CS or anything like that) with a hidden scroll that work. I swear I tried looking on internet but I still don't get it (Did I told you I was lower than beginner at this stuff ? Cuz I think I am)

Here what I tried to do (I took out the [ ] cuz I can't even find how to make the code appear otherwise )

Spoiler: r/therewasanattempt

border=transparent; height:auto; width:100%; padding: 10xp ; overflow:hidden;
border=transparent; height:auto; width:200%; overflow-y:scroll;

so to start it off! instead of using the spoiler tag, use the code tag which is the word code with the [ and ] like you would do with border if that makes sense??

ok to break down your code

border=transparent; height:auto; width:100%; padding: 10xp ; overflow:hidden;

for starters, you need to give it a height and a width. 100% will make the area spread across the whole screen. it's better to use px for width - and the same with height. the famous uxie likes to say "cage ya dogs" - which is essentially what you're doing with this first border. also, you don't need to put the word "transparent" either~! you can simply put 0; instead and it'll work the same

so, for example, if we were going to make this area 100px by 100px the border tag would be:

[border=0; padding:10px; height:100px; width:100px; overflow:hidden]

okay so the next part

border=transparent; height:auto; width:200%; overflow-y:scroll;

Once again, you need to give a height to the code. It's best to put 100% here! as for width, it doesn't need to be 200%. it can be set to 100% - but the most important thing is to add padding-right! it's also recommended that you use latin or some sort of wording as a filler so you can see the full box's contents - i usually copy and paste from here. so it can be written out as:

[border=0; padding:0; height:100%; width:100%; overflow-y:scroll; padding-right:30px]

so now, let's put it altogether. i'm going to add in a background color so we can see it better;
