I'm trying to fit a lot of text into a modal box created using Twitter Bootstrap, but I'm having a problem: that content refuses to scroll.

I tried adding overflow:scroll and overflow-y:scroll, but to no avail; that merely causes it to display a scroll bar without actually enabling the scrolling.

What's the cause behind that and what can I do?
