Hi everybody!!

I'm a developer for a few years now and I know something what you probably do not know. Well, it is not in use that very much. I'm talking about scrollbars. You can change them. I have only seen this once on a website. You can integrate this good with the design of your site. For example, you are using frames and you have the main one in the middle. Then you see an ugly scrollbar right in the middle of your site. Well I have a usefull tip for those who doesn't knew this:

<style type=&quot;text/css&quot;>body {scrollbar-face-color: #000000; scrollbar-shadow-color: #FFFFFF; scrollbar-highlight-color: #FFFFFF; scrollbar-3dlight-color: #FFFFFF; scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #FFFFFF; scrollbar-track-color: #FFFFFF; scrollbar-arrow-color: #FFFFFF}</style>

This will make your scrollbar black and white. Of course you may change the color. I would like to haer, if this was a usefull tip.

Hello,

But as far as I know, you can use it anyway. Because browser that doesn't support it, won't see it. Well that will not make a change. And browsers that do support it, will look better. So why shouldn't you use it???
