Need help with coloured scrollbars!!!

[Spindrift]

Hi there,

Thanks for checking me post out...

I'm creating a webiste in Dreamweaver MX 2004. There are pages on the site
with an iFrame which I want to have coloured scrollbars for, instead of the
plain Internet Explorer ones.

This is what my css file looks like:

body{
margin:0;
padding:0;
background-color: #000000;
SCROLLBAR-3DLIGHT-COLOR: #CCCCCC;
SCROLLBAR-ARROW-COLOR: #E9E9E9;
SCROLLBAR-DARKSHADOW-COLOR: #000000;
SCROLLBAR-FACE-COLOR: #333333;
SCROLLBAR-HIGHLIGHT-COLOR: #333333;
SCROLLBAR-SHADOW-COLOR: #000000;
SCROLLBAR-TRACK-COLOR: #666666;
}
td {
bg colour: #000000;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
line-height: 14px;
}
form {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
a:link {
COLOR: #0099FF;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:visited {
COLOR: #0099FF;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover {
COLOR: #FFFFFF;
TEXT-DECORATION: none;
}
a:active {
COLOR: #0099FF;
}
.text { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;
color: #E9E9E9}
.textfield { font-family: Verdana,Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; color:
#000000}

I've linked to the stylesheet in my HTML pages with:

<link href="../style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

When I view the site in Internet Explorer and Firefox, the scrollbars still
just appear as they normally do without the custom colours. Is there a way to
change the Firefox scrollbar colour, do you know?

Please can you help and see if you can see where I'm going wrong!

Thank you very much and I hope to hear from you.

Take care,

Mark

This code will not work on any page with a valid and complete doctype (i.e.,
any page created with DMX2004). Why? Because in standards mode, the
scrollbar belongs to the html tag, not the body tag. Change your CSS from
this -

body {

to this -

html, body {

and you will get what you want, but only in IE/PC. Fortunately, there is no
way to make it work on any other browser.
