Thumbs up Re: Is it possible to create colored scrollbar in the FIREFOX ....

Here's what you can do to make this work in all 3 major browsers (IE, Firefox, Opera):

1) use this code:

Code:
<style>
body{
   scrollbar-face-color: #808080; /*/ obviously change this to whatever you want /*/
   scrollbar-arrow-color: #FFFFFF;
   scrollbar-highlight-color: #FFFBF0;
   scrollbar-3dlight-color: #808080;
   scrollbar-shadow-color: #FFFBF0;
   scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #808080;
   scrollbar-track-color: #CCCCCC;
}
</style>
<script>
function selectCode(f){
document.forms[f].elements[0].focus();
document.forms[f].elements[0].select();
}
function changeScrollbarColor(C){
 if (document.all){
   document.body.style.scrollbarBaseColor = C
 }  
}
</script>
2) in the HTML tag of your webpage, delete ANY and ALL ties to W3C! For example, you will see code generated in the HTML tag when you create a new html page in Dreamweaver like this:

Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
Kill all of this so the only thing left is the following:

Code:
<html>
Near as I can tell, what this does is break away from the rules that have been established by the W3 consortium so anything can be read and followed. I don't know why, but it just seems to work. I have tried this script method in all three browsers and it works in all of them.


cheers
