I have a question regarding this one problem I have. I have one project right now for front-end web developing and I want to hide scrollbar, someone please help me. Here the HTML code :

<body>


    <div  class="typeform-widget" class="invisible-scrollbar" data-url="https://wwforms.typeform.com/to/GDgjO3" style="width: 100%; height: 500px; overflow-y: hidden; border-style: hidden">
    </div> 




    <script> 
        (function() { 
            var qs,js,q,s,d=document, gi=d.getElementById, ce=d.createElement, gt=d.getElementsByTagName, id="typef_orm", b="https://embed.typeform.com/"; 
            if(!gi.call(d,id)) { js=ce.call(d,"script");

This code creates an "iframe" element, which is essentially a window inside your window which opens a different web page.

The scroll bar you are seeing is part of that other web page, which the browser considers a "cross-domain resource". Because of restrictions placed on these kinds of resources, you don't the ability to style it.

You can't use your web site to change the styling of someone else's. You'd need to look into alternates to what you are doing.

For example, why display someone else's page inside yours? Why not just link directly to the other site (though that won't affect the scroll bar)? Or host the same content on your own site where you can style it?
