i know you can change the background, text colour, border, size, and all of that stuff inside text area codes- but what i get annoyed with is the scrollbar. is there a code to change the colour of the scrollbar within a text area and if there is, can i have an html example?

I'm not sure if you can just change the text area scrollbar alone, but i know that if you use css to change the color of your main page scrollbars the text area scrollbars will be the same color.

There's a css scrollbar tutorial here: http://www.lissaexplains.com/css.shtml

Hope this helps,
Love Laura.
