I don't know how to change the border color and scroll bar color for my text box. Here's what I have...

<form><textarea rows="15" cols="180" style="background:#000000" style="font-family: times new roman" style="color:#3991ff" "style="border style:solid">MY TEXT
</textarea></form>

Thanks for the help!

Oh--I also don't know about changing the font size...I'm not sure how to incorporate that style sheet coding.

try this and play around with it for your desired results...

<form><textarea rows="15" cols="180" style="background:#000000; font-family:times new roman; color:#3991ff; border:5px double #ff0000;">
MY TEXT
</textarea></form>

sorry, don't have the scrollbar info at hand right now.

<form><textarea rows="15" cols="180" style="background:#000000; font-family:times new roman; color:#3991ff; border:5px double #ff0000; scrollbar-face-color : #000000;
scrollbar-highlight-color : #000000;
scrollbar-3dlight-color : #000000; scrollbar-shadow-color : #000000;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color : #000000; scrollbar-track-color : #000000;
scrollbar-arrow-color : #000000;">
MY TEXT
</textarea></form>

the bold part is for the scrollbars. Change the colours to the colours you like :)

Hi,
Okay...I tried it again, and it works better now. The only thing is...I don't know how to make a single border in a solid color, like the one at the bottom of this page:
http://www.lissaexplains.com/html5.shtml

Also...how come when I use a certain color code, it turns out differently in two different places on the same page?

Thanks

<form><textarea rows="15" cols="180" style="background:#000000; font-family:times new roman; color:#3991ff; border:1px solid #ff0000; scrollbar-face-color : #000000;
scrollbar-highlight-color : #000000;
scrollbar-3dlight-color : #000000; scrollbar-shadow-color : #000000;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color : #000000; scrollbar-track-color : #000000;
scrollbar-arrow-color : #000000;">
MY TEXT
</textarea></form>

the bold part will make a 1 pixel width solid border around it. The color behind it is the color from the border.

Thanks a lot! It worked.

I'm still not sure about the color issue though. I'm using color 3991ff...and I put it in for the scroll bar...and it shows up correctly...but when I put it in for the border and text color, it shows up as an aqua color.

have you added in all 3 ways the # in front of the color?

example: #3991ff
instead of: 3991ff

maybe that helps. I'm not sure though.

Love,
Mirna

Yeah, I have all the # in front of them....

but the scrollbar colours don't show up the exact same on all places. For example the dark 3d color is darker then the base colour and so on.

My advice is to take a screenshot of your scrollbar with (prt sc) next to your f12 button. Then open your graphic program and push ctrl + v. Then click on the "dropper" and click on the colour you want the border to be. Get the HEX code from that (in psp click on the colour and you should be able to see it) and fill that in as your border colour

if you are not able to do this i can also do it for you if you want. Just tell me which colour (of the scrollbar) you need to know

Love,
Mirna

Yeah...could you do it? I know how to take the screen shot...but not how to get the code. Just click on my web link, it's on that page...the "Moonlit Gallery" text in front of the clouds at the top.
Thanks

i get allot of codes, since it's not a solid color from that text

3 main colours i could get:

#8491F7
#8381EF
#9C8DFF

Hey, it works now! Thanks a lot, I really appreciate your help.
