I'm trying to transfer scroll bars into my template. I read the info on the
link provided. I put this code into the head section and nothing is showing up
in IE. Am I placing the code in the wrong place or is it written wrong?

<style type="text/css">
<!--

body { scrollbar-3d-light-color:#ffffff;
scrollbar-arrow-color:#ff6699;
scrollbar-base-color:#ffffff;
scrollbar-dark-shadow-color:#ffffff;
scrollbar-face-color: #ffffff;
scrollbar-highlight-color:#ffffff;
scrollbar-shadow-color:#ffffff}

-->
</style>

This IE/PC only cosmetic effect does not transfer scrollbars into the page.
It only colors those that may or may not be there due to the size of the
page relative to the size of the browser viewport.

Anyhow, it will fail on any page created with DMX2004 since DMX2004 uses a
valid and complete doctype, thereby putting the browsers into Standards
mode. In standards mode, the scrollbar belongs to the <html> tag, not the
body tag. You can fix your stylesheet as follows to make the coloring work
in IE/PC only in Standards mode -

html, body { scrollbar-3d-light-color:#ffffff;
....etc...
}

I put it in an external style sheet and it worked like a charm.

Question regarding scrollbar class style sheets - will a class style sheet
when being applied to say an Iframe work work without any adjustments. Since a
class style is not a tag and will not be directly applied to the body. I
haven't gotten to the page with an iframe to test it, just thought you might
know.

You mean a stylesheet, right?

I'm not sure I understand the question. If the page being opened *in* the
stylesheet contains the scrollbar styles, then they will be colored. That
would be the same type rule as recommended earlier -

html, body { ... }

i.e., redefined tags.

> Since a

You would not do it with a custom class - you would do it with a redefined
tag.
