Horizontal scroll bar color?

**chugger93** · Jul 2nd, 2003, 03:26 PM

How do some of these web sites have a colored horizontal scroll bar on the left side. How do I do this with my website?

Is it javascript or what?

for example
http://graf-users.edu.ats.dk/maryus1...%20higher).htm

Thanx

You use CSS (Casecading Style Sheets) to pull this off:

Code:

<style>
body{
	SCROLLBAR-FACE-COLOR: #0099cc;
	SCROLLBAR-HIGHLIGHT-COLOR: #bec6da;
	SCROLLBAR-SHADOW-COLOR: #bec6da; 
	SCROLLBAR-3DLIGHT-COLOR: #000000; 
	SCROLLBAR-ARROW-COLOR: #ffffff; 
	SCROLLBAR-TRACK-COLOR: #6481aa; 
	SCROLLBAR-DARKSHADOW-COLOR: #000000
}
</style>

Unless Netscape, Opera, etc have updated, I believe that only works in IE.

You are correct, but it is the only way to do it. I believe that it may work in the newest version of Netscape. Anyway, who use Opera anymore?

According to my web statistics, 0.7% of my visitors.
