Eric Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 It won't work if you add a DTD.Remove the DTD.The reason is that it's not valid, so the DTD will atemp to revert it.This is true, as I tried it 3 years ago. As soon as I added the DTD the scrollbars reverted in color.Of course, now I know better and don't use them at all :)Main reason being that it's not valid, and another is that is really pisses people off to have their scrollbar change color Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IE displays a gray scrollbar, windows 98 style, instead of the XP scrollbar with shadow effects and stuff. So it definetely works. Maybe things have changed over 3 years. I know it's not valid, but I thought a gray scrollbar looked better with that design. Opera will show a gray scrollbar either way, but FF shows the XP scrollbar.

Eric Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Opera will show a gray scrollbar either way, but FF shows the XP scrollbar.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Firefox shows whatever scrollbar the current theme uses (not just the XP scrollbar).My theme is called SoftCrystal, look at my scrollbar ---> Opera for whatever reason, only shows the grey scrollbar no matter what. It should conform to the style of the theme the user has on his/her computer.FF +1 Opera -1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonas Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Riiiight. Anyway, that's not the point. Scrollbar works with doctype. Jonas +1 Eric -1 as you would put it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
