Hi:

I have a problem with my scrollbar default colors. I have a css file that
changes the scrollbar colors on my webpage to something more my style and
color. My problem is that the textarea colors/scrollbar on my pages also
have those colors. Question ...

Can I somehow override something so that ONLY my main page scrollbars are my
color and the rest of the page (textarea's) are the default standard color?


TIA

This page: http://www.southdakotawebdesign.com/CSSFormsPlus.shtml#anchor2
tells you how to give different color styles to your textareas; you could
probably modify it to get the default colors back for your textarea.

Be aware that colored scrollbars will not validate. IE is the only browser that will recognize
them.

Steve,
They need to be applied to html rather than body. Most people do scrollbars
like this
<style type="text/css">
body {
scrollbar-base-color: #999;
...etc
}
</style>
This will fail on IE6 with a doctype
This will work on IE with a doctype
<style type="text/css">
html{
scrollbar-base-color: #999;
...etc
}
</style>
You're right that scrollbars are only supported on IE

Thanks John. Didn't know that. ( among other things )
Now if you could just tell me how to get Mozilla to read the width and height of an image using
javascript, I would be a happy camper.

Jon,

Even if I change it to html in the style sheet, it still won't validate with W3C.
