Colored scroll bars

D Farrer · 11-13-2003, 02:22 PM

I've added color scroll bars to all the pages in my site using a java script in the header. I even managed to insert it in the right place in an in-line frame. Through trial and error and lots of advice from here and other sites I've learned a lot about HTML, tags, etc. Now I've started to add a bit of Java script. Still a novice though.

: My dilemma is that I have a java script that is excellent (and easy) for a drop-down page search box for my site, but the scroll bars are Windows default colors. Is there anyway I can combine the scroll bar script with this one to end up with colored scroll bars? Or do I need something else.
At present this page search box is on my Search page, but I want to put it at the top of every page.
I use FrontPage and had started cleaning up the HTML code, but decided to just do the Meta tags, etc and publish it as is and clean it up later. Our old site looked really slapped together! www.techdirectcomputers.com

Moved to code / script forum room.

I'm not sure if you can change other interface form elemnts such listboxes or combo boxes, just scroll bars.

Use CSS to set the colours, the JavaScript - I presume u downloaded - probably has an easy place to set colours, but when the script runs it will just add some CSS to you page to colour the bars anyway.
