scrollbar-highlight-color:steelblue;scrollbar-3dlight-color:steelblue;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color:steelblue;scrollbar-track-color:steelblue;

try to fill in 'hexcodes' like this #000000 = black and #ffffff = white

also i never heard about "whitesmoke" so that might cause it. Also if you have verion of IE 5.0 or below the codes will not be seen on your computer. You have to have 5.5 or above to see it.

Love,
Mirna

Other than what Mirna mentioned you should try something like

Body{
scrollbar-face-color:whitesmoke;
scrollbar-shadow-color:steelblue;
scrollbar-highlight- color:steelblue;
scrollbar-3dlight-color:steelblue;
scrollbar-darkshadow- color:steelblue;
scrollbar-track-color:steelblue;
scrollbar-arrow-color:plum;
}

Here (http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/reference/color_codes) is a HTML/Hex color chart. Here (http://search.yahoo.com/bin/search?p=hex+color+chart&ei=UTF-8) are some more.

No,no,no. Those are real colours. Copy and paste this url to see what i mean. http://www.draac.com/colorchart.html. there's something else that i'm doing wrong cuz I'm sure i have IE above 5.0.

Did you try

Body{
scrollbar-face-color:whitesmoke;
scrollbar-shadow-color:steelblue;
scrollbar-highlight- color:steelblue;
scrollbar-3dlight-color:steelblue;
scrollbar-darkshadow- color:steelblue;
scrollbar-track-color:steelblue;
scrollbar-arrow-color:plum;
}
?

If that's not working perhaps you can give us the URL to the error page?
