Colouring Scroll bars

[stevet26]

Hi

Does anyone know if it is possible colour scroll bars on scrollable divs.

I have been looking around on Google and have come up with articles to make all scroll bars on a page different colours, but not just div's.

Aslo, does colouring scroll bars conform to web standards? As when I try this in Dreamweaver, it does not seem to offer the scrollbar options in its CSS predictive text.

Thanks in advance

I don't believe you can do the former, and no - the latter does not conform to any standards (it's a propietary MS addition).

Hope this helps,

Well, you can color the scrollbars in a div -but like Dan says, it only works in IE, so you shouldn't...

If you wanna see what it looks anyway, then try this styling:

.myDiv {
  height                       : 100px;
  width                        : 200px;
  overflow                     : scroll;
  background-color             : yellow;
  scrollbar-face-color         : fuchsia;
  scrollbar-highlight-color    : yellow;
  scrollbar-3dlight-color      : orange;
  scrollbar-darkshadow-color   : darkblue;
  scrollbar-shadow-color       : gray;
  scrollbar-arrow-color        : yellow;
  scrollbar-track-color        : aqua;
}
