how to have a colored scrollbar in vb3 ?

like the one of vb3 ACP, it's dark blue
how to make one for main forum ? I tried but didn't know how to get it correct.
thank you

Not possible if you want compliant CSS, as there is no attribute for specifying scrollbar color.

If you don't care: Set scrollbar-base-color, scrollbar-3dlight-color, scrollbar-arrow-color, scrollbar-darkshadow-color, scrollbar-face-color, scrollbar-highlight-color, scrollbar-shadow-color and scrollbar-track-color for the BODY-Tag.

And do remember, only IE users will see it.

NOTE: this is script I wrote by hand - feel free to use it but PLEASE leave the acknowledgement in ... it *should* retain colours that fit with your style automatically :) but of course will only render colours in IE

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">

<!-- 

/* START I.E. only Flat ScrollBar Colour Script for use with CSS2 Validation */

/* coded by Natch - mobileforces.org */

bg  = window.document.bgColor;

txt = window.document.fgColor;

if (document.all){

 with (window.document.body.style){

 scrollbarBaseColor=bg;

 scrollbarFaceColor=bg;

 scrollbarHighlightColor=txt;

 scrollbar3dLightColor=bg;

 scrollbarShadowColor=txt;

 scrollbarDarkShadowColor=bg;

 scrollbarArrowColor=txt;

 scrollbarTrackColor=txt;

 }

}

/* END I.E. only Flat ScrollBar Colour Script for use with CSS2 Validation */

//-->

</script>

(NB: your CSS won't be compliant, but doing it via Javascript will hide your non-compliant CSS from the validator :p)

Well ... yes ;)
Although I wouldn't do this.

Natch, yours doesn't seem to work either. Sorry for my idiot question but how can I set up colors in your code ?
Of course I'm using IE.
thank you guys

If you wanna set up colours in the code I posted, you replace the txt and bg entries on each line with '#******' where the *'s are your RRGGBB colour codes ... (but as I said it will give u javascript errors in IE6 so don't use it :)

thanks anyway, it's nothing with changing color when it doesn't work T_T

Just put:

HTML Code:

html {

    scrollbar-base-color: #E7E5E6;

    scrollbar-arrow-color: #334B71;

}

in the additional css box in the style manager, obviously putting in your own colours.

thank you NTLDR, it works !
