I am working on a new layout for my blog, but the scroll bar refuses to change color. Is it because I have an iFrame? I tried smashing the computer, but that didn't work (^^; hehe) .

the scrollbar coding will affect whatever page it is on.

the coding on your "main" page will affect the main scrollbar.

the coding on the page being shown within your iframe area will affect the iframe scrollbar.

so if your blog is inside an iframe, you will have to add the scrollbar coloring coding to the blog webpage.

Here's the HTML to the main page, not the iFrame page.

<html>
<head>
<title>It's a new world, It's a new start...</title>
</head>
<body>
<div style="direction:ltr">
<style type="text/css">
{background: #FFFFFF;
background-image: url(sandy.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center;


font-family: Comic Sans MS;
color: #FF0099 ;

direction:rtl;

scrollbar-face-color : #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-highlight-color : #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-3dlight-color : #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-shadow-color : #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color : #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-track-color : #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-arrow-color : #FFFFFF;

margin-top: 0;
margin-bottom: 0;
margin-left: 0;
margin-right: 0; }


</style>

<center><BR><BR><BR><BR><br><br><BR><BR><BR><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><IFRAME name="inlineframe" src="index2.htm" width=600 height=250 marginwidth=0 marginheight=0 hspace=0 vspace=0 frameborder=0 scrolling=auto style="FILTER: chroma(color=#ff0000)" allowtransparency="true"></IFRAME>


</div>
</body>

perhaps it's because of the browser or OS you're using. Before I got XP I had Windows 98 and coloured scrollbars never used to show up. Do coloured scrollbars show up on other sites that you go on?

I think you're right. I just loaded up my main website and the scrollbar colors didn't show up. I am on a 95...well, thanks ^^.

it doesn't matter what OS you have, it's what browser you're using. colored scrollbars only work on IE 5.5+

you could always upgrade the version on 95 and they should work.

Bleh...my Dad doesn't allow us to mess around on his office computer. I suppose as soon as I'm not grounded anymore (April 1st-November 11th), I'll be able to see what it really looks like.
