Why is it possible, in a CSS, to alter the props of a scrollbar...but not a combobox!

using:

Code:

---

BODY, SELECT
{
scrollbar-face-color:red;
scrollbar-shadow-color: Maroon;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #FF7F50;
scrollbar-3dlight-color:pink;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color:darkgreen;
scrollbar-track-color: green;
scrollbar-arrow-color: white;
}

---

so...why can't you do anything like this with a combo???

Probably because it is not supported?

Because MS didn't create proprietary tags for comboboxes?

I wanted to point out that this is not CSS. What you have here is MS proprietary style elements, but not CSS.

If you directly affect these, you will undermind accessibility. The civilized world understands this. MS will eventually decide that there can be no variation in its user base, and accessibility will not be an issue.

Actually it is CSS. It just isn't valid CSS1 2 or 3. But it is valid CSS MS-version.

So how would you change the style/appearance of a combo box???

You can't. Not the scrollbars.
