 Scroll (parchment) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The linear access of the scroll meant that it was easy to confuse the scribes; for example, there are versions of the Egyptian Book of the Dead with multiple, repeated sections.
Scrolls are still used today in some religious contexts; in Jewish and many other cultures, a scroll is read with one roll to the left and one roll to the right, and with columns of text running from top to bottom.
Typically, each end of a scroll is attached to a rod or baton for support and to protect from damage during storage and use.

 How to Use Scroll Panes
Notice that the scroll bars disappear when the scroll pane is large enough to display the entire image and reappear again when the scroll pane is too small to show the entire image.
The scroll bar appears when the viewport is smaller than the client and disappears when the viewport is larger than the client.
Unless you explicitly set a scroll pane's preferred size, the scroll pane computes it based on the preferred size of its nine components (the viewport, and, if present, the two scroll bars, the row and column headers, and the four corners).

 The Copper Scroll
The Copper Scroll and The Excavations at Qumran
This document in particular, and the scrolls in general, ignore the normal Messianic tradition in Judaism because the Essenes had their own point of view a point of view that is even further removed from the Messianic concepts advanced by Christianity.
The layout of the scroll bears an unmistakable mathematical pattern that demonstrates the precision and the intent of the writers.

 Scroll
Their losses were listed in a scroll and sealed seven times, then the conditions necessary to purchase back the land and possessions were written on the outside of the scroll.
Some believe that the first seal has to be broken which opens the scroll until the second seal is reached and then it too is opened, etc. This is not the case with this particular scroll in my opinion.
Apparently, scrolls of this nature were extremely rare in New Testament times as typically the writing was done on one side only.

 Copeland Corporation Scroll Technology   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
The concept of compressing a gas by turning one involute form – or “scroll” – against another around a common axis is nearly a century old.
In the years since, Copeland has become the leader in scroll compressor applications, with nine scroll manufacturing facilities on three continents and millions of units installed worldwide.
This movement draws gas into the compression chamber and moves it through successively smaller “pockets” formed by the scroll’s rotation, until it reaches maximum pressure at the center of the chamber.

This impressive scroll is a collection of psalms and hymns, comprising parts of forty-one biblical psalms (chiefly form chapters 101-50), in non-canonical sequence and with variations in detail.
Its surface is the thickest of any of the scrolls-Äit may be of calfskin rather than sheepskin, which was the more common writing material at Qumran.
The scroll's script is of fine quality, with the letters carefully drawn in the Jewish book-hand style of the Herodian period.

 SimpleBits | Embrace the Scroll
Scrolling is really not a problem as long as there is clear continuation down the page and no large gaps.
As the majority of websites have vertical scrolling then people just roll their mouse wheel without thinking about it, whether there’s anything to scroll or not- that’s not based on research but observation- basic human intuition has always been making up for inaccessible content, because missing it, in many cases has larger implications.
Scrolling is OK within reason, and can even have some advantages, such as giving a page apparent weight/depth of knowledge on a particular subject, however even with a ‘mighty mouse’ scrolling through #55 (now #56) comments is pushing it!

 Schiffman: Temple Scroll and Halakhic Pseudepigrapha
The notion that the Temple Scroll is fundamentally addressed to Moses, and that he is the "thou" of the scroll would effectively assume that in the lost beginning of the scroll, or at its conclusion, there appeared mention of Moses' name in the text, much as in the case with Deuteronomy.
If the scroll was the product of one author, then it would have been possible to say that even the slightest oblique reference to Moses shows that he is meant to be everywhere present in the second person pronouns.
We may say that the Temple Scroll as we have it, without the mention of Moses's name, would make it a divine pseudepigraphon, even if Moses appears as a recipient of revelation, since he is never claimed as the author by the scroll.

 Great Isaiah Scroll Directory
Thus you will be able to read the scroll here but it is a facsimile of a photo copy and not a reproduction of the actual colors of the scroll.
Although there are many differences between the Scroll and the Masoretic text, these are often spelling differences like the addition of a vowel or an article or conjunction or a change in person and number.
If you have an interest in knowing what the Isaiah scroll is like and want to know more about it and the technical make up of the scroll and the major variations between this and the received text, then this is the place to begin.

 What is scroll? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary
The term scroll means that once the screen is full, each new line appears at the edge of the screen and all other lines move over one position.
For example, when you scroll down, each new line appears at the bottom of the screen and all the other lines move up one row, so that the top line disappears.
One advantage to scrolling, therefore, is that you can look at the end of one page and the beginning of the next page at the same time.

As the spiral movement continues, gas is drawn in and forced toward the center of the scroll form, creating increasingly higher gas pressures and discharging the gas from the port of the fixed scroll member.
Axial compliance allows the scroll to remain in continuous contact in all normal operating conditions, ensuring minimal leakage without the use of tip seals.

 Straight Dope Staff Report: What's the "Scroll Lock" key on my computer for?
The Scroll Lock key has appeared on the keyboards of IBM personal computers since the original 83-key PC/XT and the 84-key AT layouts, and remains on the 101-key and greater "enhanced" keyboards currently in use.
The main intent of the Scroll Lock key was to allow scrolling of screen text up, down and presumably sideways using the arrow keys in the days before large displays and graphical scroll bars.
The Pause/Break key was used in the DOS command line environment to pause scrolling of text on the screen, which could, depending on the program and its method of text output to the screen, have the effect of pausing program execution.

 ASP.NET.4GuysFromRolla.com: Maintaining Scroll Position on Postback
This function is considerably simpler, and is executed when the page loads, resetting the scroll position to the position prior to the last postback.
I mean, we're potentially capturing the scroll bar position at times when it's not even changing (if you click in white space for example) or if you push the tab key to move around a Web Form.
Others have utilized different techniques for recording scroll position; for example, in Justin Lovell's article Keeping Scroll Positions Over Postbacks, he uses a JavaScript timer to record the scroll positions 100 times a second.

The units of horizontal scrolling are pixels, while the units of vertical scrolling are lines.
Horizontal scrolling is measured in pixels because most fonts you typically use are proportionally spaced; meaning, the characters can have different widths.
Flash performs vertical scrolling by line because users usually want to see a line of text in its entirety, as opposed to seeing a partial line.

 TWO THOUSAND YEARS LATER: Scrolls from the Dead Sea (Library of Congress Exhibition)

In 1896, noted Talmud scholar and educator Solomon Schechter discovered sectarian compositions which later were found to be medieval versions of the Damascus Document.
Schechter's find in a synagogue storeroom near Cairo, almost fifty years before the Qumran discoveries, may be regarded as the true starting point of modern scroll research.
