How do you add a scrollbar for paging in PHP?

I have a lot of images stored in database, and want to display those images on the page, three per row.

I'd like to use a scrollbar for listing those images instead of paging through them. So instead of Next/Previous buttons, I'd like to use a scroll bar to display the images ...

One link to look at is here, and here, but it'd probably be easier to do this in CSS.

You need to set the div height for the div that will hold all the images, then set overflow-y: scroll;

Your question is unclear.

If you want to display all the images, get them all from the database and print the HTML for each one. If you want to do rows, use the mod http://php.net/manual/en/internals2.opcodes.mod.php operator and a count variable to determine how many images you've counted through and whether or not you need a new row (to get the 3 images per row)
