This is not a question about how to color the scrollbars, I know how to do that. I would like to know why IE 6.0 doesn’t support this feature. I thought it was neat. Will IE ever support it again?
@ecrossDec 03.2002 — #I'm using Internet Explorer v.6 and it does support color scrollbars in CSS. The features only works in IE v5.5 that I know of, so if you are using earlier version of IE it will ignore the color scrollbars. You can tell what version you are currently using if you don't already know, by choosing About Internet Explorer from the Help menu.
In short, if you code a webpage as you should do, with a proper doctype (without using deprecated HTML) you will find youself in STRICT (aka standards compliant) parsing mode.
For reference here is the Mozilla documentation for Gecko browsers
[B]It isn't any different, it's the same coding. Whatever works in IE5.5 will work in IE6 as well. ? [/B][/QUOTE]
No it won't. I have the coding on my website. It works fine in IE 5.5, but NOT at all on IE 6. You can see for your self if you have IE 6 by going to www.geocities.com/lordoftheringsandtolkien the scrollbars are supposed to be black with gold arrows.
@pyroDec 10.2002 — #Zach. The scrollbars look fine to me in IE 6. Have you tried looking at someone elses site who has colored scrollbars? If not take a look at my site(http://www.infinitypages.com) and see if you can see those scrollbar colors.
