Scroll bar color, SeaMonkey.

HI, I posted the following in the FireFox, ThunderBird, SeaMonkey forum. It has been five days with fifty views and zero replies. Thought I would change forums and see if that would help. Not the end of the world but a fix would be nice. -Thanks.



I am running Windows XP pro and SeaMonkey v1.1.14. Also I am using a Dell Latitude D610 laptop. I have realized after much searching that the scroll bar is not at all changeable except for its size. The color change boxes are grayed out.

My question is this. During my search I found many apps for creating colored scrollbars for personal web pages. I know absolutely nothing about this sort of thing so please excuse my ignorance about this aspect of computing. What follows is what I found for creating a colored scroll bar on a personal web page.

<style type='text/css'> BODY {scrollbar-3dlight-color: #000000; scrollbar-arrow-color: #000000; scrollbar-base-color: #000000; scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #000000; scrollbar-face-color: #00FF00; scrollbar-highlight-color: #000000; scrollbar-shadow-color: #000000} </style>

Can this somehow be used in WinXP or SeaMonkey to change the appearance of my scroll bar? If so, can it be done easily or does it require four years of computer science? If no I guess that takes care of that and I will continue to squint at my grey on gray scroll bar. Some contrast would be good.

Thanks TRoof

 

Hi Tony/broni

Thanks for the replies. After checking out both of your fixes I found on solution in the add-ons and the custom scroll bar fix may require some time investment by me. Not quite sure if I should leave almost well enough alone or just jump in and see if I sink.

Also after searching once again for this same change for the scroll bar it seemed that there were more "can't be done" then " here is how it is done" responses.

Onward and upward.

Thanks- Troof
