Eh? They should show scrollbars automatically once you have enough text entered.

Oh yes, Ipad and Iphone browsers don't support that. Steve Jobe does not like scrolling, he hates scrolling. He also hates flash from adobe.

Well I'm not sure what I can do about that. Textareas already have auto overflow by default. If iThingies are refusing to support that you're pretty much screwed.

My android (HTC Evo) don't show scrollbars for shout box either. I think the reason is, it only support one scrollbar for main page only.

May be it is a bit hard to implement cascaded scrollbars in smart phones because the touch screen scrolling is already way to complex.

Serves you right for selling your soul to Steve Jobs, I say.

In case anyone with an iPhone or iPad ever reads this. You can scroll through editable text by holding your finger on it until the magnifying glass appears, and then dragging your finger to the edge of the input box and holding it there.
