Author Change colour of a frames scroll bar

Hey everyone,

I wanted to thank the people who helped me last time with the flash button
issue.

Anyways, here I m stuck again with a hopefully a small problem in Dreamweaver.
I want to change the colour of my frames scroll bar and the size of the frame
scoll bar, how do I do that? Is this related to CSS? And in that case you
someone give me a quick guide to how to change the size and the colour.

Best Regards

Tomek

Changing the scrollbar colors only works in Internet Explorer, not any other
browser. I would avoid it.

If you still want to do it though, add the following code between <head> and
</head> and then just change the hex codes for the colors you want.

<style type="text/css">
body{
scrollbar-face-color:#EBF5FF;
scrollbar-base-color:#EBF5FF;
scrollbar-arrow-color:#000000;
scrollbar-track-color:#F3F3F3;
scrollbar-shadow-color:#EBF5FF;
scrollbar-highlight-color:#EBF5FF;
scrollbar-3dlight-color:#78AAFF;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color:#78AAFF;
}
</style>

As for the width .. to my knowledge you can't change the scrollbar width.

It only works in IE on a PC. Also if you want your CSS to validate wrap
it in a conditional comment that targets only IE like so:

<!--[if IE]>
<style type="text/css">
body{
scrollbar-face-color:#EBF5FF;
scrollbar-base-color:#EBF5FF;
scrollbar-arrow-color:#000000;
scrollbar-track-color:#F3F3F3;
scrollbar-shadow-color:#EBF5FF;
scrollbar-highlight-color:#EBF5FF;
scrollbar-3dlight-color:#78AAFF;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color:#78AAFF; }
</style>
<![endif]-->
