Hi there,

I have a code in my "Heroes" section to have my scroll bar be certain colors. But, on my page, it is still the common grey scroll bar. Could someone let me know what I am doing wrong and how to fix it? Thank you!

Are you using Firefox? I don't think the browser accepts scrollbar codes. I know that all of mine look fine in IE, but they don't show up in FF.

It's not ridiculous, CSS is for governing the style of HTML, not the user-end browser. Scrollbar styles are proprietary to Internet Explorer, it's against web standards, it's Micro$oft thinking they can make their own web standards.

Who cares? Seriously. You sound ridiculous.

Kudos to Microsoft for thinking of awesome scroll bars! I bet you FF will allow scroll bars in the future.

QUOTE("w3.org")
Some browsers (IE, Konqueror) have recently started supporting the non-standard properties 'scrollbar-shadow-color', 'scrollbar-track-color' and others. These properties are illegal: they are neither defined in any CSS specification nor are they marked as proprietary (by prefixing them with "-vendor-"). But luckily you can easily disable them.


Web standards are there for a reason.

^Not really. In fact, CSS codes can be placed in any section except for your Headline section.

Do people here just make stuff up and post it, hoping that no one will correct them?

"its always been that way ever since myspace was Started."

Do you even know what CSS is?

Scroll bars are part of the browser, not the web page.

well actualy the Scroll bar is KINDA Part of the WEB PAGE, because the EDITOR OF THE WEB PAGE HAS CONTROL OVER THE SCROLL BAR, HE/SHE CAN HIDE IT OR PLACE IT WHEREVER..
