Eric 1 Posted January 29, 2006 Report 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 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

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. For validation buttons, hover over |<< and >>| Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Eric 1 Posted January 29, 2006 Report 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 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jonas 151 Posted January 29, 2006 Report 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
