On the form in the URL provided there are 2 small (perhaps rediculously small)
multi-choice selection menus that are missing scrollbars.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to http://tours.surroundpix.com.au/advanced.app?more=yes&agent_id=424
2. observe the lack of scrollbars
3.

Actual Results:  
The selection menus (named "Suburb" and "Category") are missing the scrollbars
needed to make them navigable.

Expected Results:  
I get scrollbars with OmniWeb.

Work-around: click on first item and use the arrow-keys.

FYI:
- Similar problem with Component Select field in bugzilla IF you have activated
via TinkerTool the Double-Arrows at both Ends.
- Similar problem with Java applet (and Java program eg: Myster).

I don't know if it's possible at Chimera level to reduce to just 2 arrows
(bugzilla) or just a Scroll Thumb without arrows at all when it's too small.

Confirmed using Chimera/2002112604 and FizzillaMach/2002112607. I'm certain this
has been reported before, too.

I (normally) have only single arrows at the ends of my scrollbars (don't recall
if I used tinkertool, or what). I got the same lack of scroll arrows on the example.

Those input elements are too short to show scrollbars. Make any other scrollbar
in the OS this height, and it will display in the same way.
