No it doesn't append on a spécifique page (but the page have to be long
enough to make the scrollbar appear).

But I found the reason line 264 of
Source/WebKit/gtk/webkit/webkitwebframe.cpp file.

WebKitWebFrame::scrollbars-policy-changed:
     * @web_view: the object which received the signal
     *
     * Signal emitted when policy for one or both of the scrollbars of
     * the view has changed. The default handler will apply the new
     * policy to the container that holds the #WebKitWebFrame if it is
     * a #GtkScrolledWindow and the frame is the main frame. If you do
     * not want this to be handled automatically, you need to handle
     * this signal.
     *
     * The exception to this rule is that policies to disable the
     * scrollbars are applied as %GTK_POLICY_AUTOMATIC instead, since
     * the size request of the widget would force browser windows to
     * not be resizable.
     *
     * You can obtain the new policies from the
     * WebKitWebFrame:horizontal-scrollbar-policy and
     * WebKitWebFrame:vertical-scrollbar-policy properties.
     *
     * Return value: %TRUE to stop other handlers from being invoked
for the
     * event. %FALSE to propagate the event further.
     *
     * Since: 1.1.14

So it seams it is now impossible to use webkit without a scrollbar.

Am I right ?

Thanks
