[Neily]

I've seen this on web sites but have not found out how to do it at all!!

How do I colour the scroll bars in IE?

Many Thanks

Here's a URL that talks about it:

Don't forget to check the "See Also" part at the end. There's other parts to a scrollbar besides the base color. Tracy Dryden

give the code below a try:

<STYLE>
BODY
{scrollbar-face-color: #666666; scrollbar-shadow-color: #333333;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #333333; scrollbar-3dlight-color: #333333;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #333333; scrollbar-track-color: #333333;
scrollbar-arrow-color: #FFEB00}
</STYLE>

I'm not sure about it working in netscape but I know it works in IE.

Hope this helps Hope this helped!

I'm almost certain it won't work in NN, since the MS web site says it one of their extensions to CSS.

I think that you can just set the scrollbar BASE color, and it will choose appropriate shades of that for the rest of the hightlight, shadow, etc. colors. Tracy Dryden
