Hey i changed the colr of my scrollbars with the code:
<STYLE type="text/css">
<!--
BODY {
direction:;
background-attachment:fixed;
scrollbar-arrow-color: #000000;
scrollbar-track-color: #330066;
scrollbar-face-color: #33ccff;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #0066ff;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #330099;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #330099;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #330099;
}
-->
</STYLE>

BNut it doesn't work with fiefox.......only with internet explorer and aol (the only others i have)

That's because those CSS attributes are IE specific. They won't work in anything else. Thankyou Microsoft.

Is there any ways i can make it work with firefox?

Thankyou Microsoft.

Before I amke a rant, are you being sarcastic??

Take a screen shot of your scroll-bars in IE. Print the screenshot and cut out the scrollers. Now open the page in firefox and bluetack your scrollers to the monitor.

Thats the only way your going to get custom scrollers in anything but IE.

ha ha ha,

whats so important that you would want to change scroll bar colours anyway.

go on my website with firefox and then go on it with Internet explorer and you'll see the difference

dont see the big the deal, looks better without the colors

No dud its better with colors.....

Browsers like firefox are so customizable that most people have skins on theirs.....

soooo what Im getting to is I hate it when sites mess with the look of my browser.......

actually I really dont care, but it seemed like a good idea at the time

I suppose you could enhance the look of your site but it is an overkill if you ask me.

I would think so, only Bill would make some stuff for a browser of his creation to attempt to mask how useless it is when he defines his own standards.

And stop lynching tux!

So, when it's a missing feature, it's a bad thing, when it's an added feature that no other browser has, it's also a bad thing?
Hateing Microsoft is just a fashion, nothing more!

Make me.

When it comes to browsers, it's all about standard's compliance. You need to do what the W3C outlines, and don't add stupid extras. Try running that code through the CSS Validator. It will break, and everyone here knows it. It's because MS added some useless feature that isn't supported. What's the point of changing the colors, anyway?

So what if it doesn't validate?

Some people require their pages to validate, some don't. It's the people's choice, not the browsers. Microsoft isn't forcing people to have coloured scrollbars and invalid code...

But why write invalid markup? I know it's not required (unfortunately), and due to stupid quirks mode, most people get away with horribly incorrect syntax. I repeat my original question, why? It's just as bad as purposefully writing buggy code.

I wouldn't do it myself, but others might want to. If they do, valid code is their problem. It's not a huge issue for browsers to ignore... besides, they might be writing code for an audience where they know what browser will be used.

I don't hate microsoft. Look at Netscape and the <center> tag.

I think the new method of introducing unsupported tags ( -moz-opacity, -opera-sometag ) is a better way of going about things since it marks them out as 'browser specific, use at your peril'.

Minaki-
The whole world operates on standards they are what got us here today...Standards are here to make everything easier and work better and to be able to improve on what exists today...I mean do you want a nuclear power plant to not follow set standards or how about the doctor operating on his patient...

Granted not having valid code is not as serious as some of the above but it is still has standards...bottom line standards make our world work and have allowed the human race to get where we are today....Having browsers that are not standards compliant is not going to help the internet advance, if anything it will only make it worse....

Now before you go off on you just hate Microsoft...you are wrong I use many of Microsofts products daily and yes I love them but I also hate them, then again that goes with everything and as a human its our right to complain so...thats that......

I'm not gonna go off and say you just hate MS, but I will say that I disagree with you somewhat - yes, standards should by all means be followed, however there are times when it's good not to - or would be downright stupid to follow them (I'm not saying this particular instance is one of them)...
