Hi,

For the style that defines what size your widget is, you need to include a setting for overflow. As an example, if you place your widget script in the following div tag, the widget will scroll automatically if content goes below the set height:

<div style="width=250px;height=300px;overflow=auto;"></div>

Let me make one suggestion.  If you take the solution Jenny provided, and change the equal signs to colons, you'll have a true cross browser solution. 

for example:

   <div style="width:250px;height:300px;overflow:auto;"></div>

will work the same in IE, Firefox, and Safari.
