Is it possible to change the color of scroll bars that is W3C compliant?

the code does not validate ever.

but it can be done, but some browsers just ignore it……

I done it on an old site of mine

at the end of the day I wouldnt bother – it always, ALWAYS looks crap. If you want to do it use a JavaScript style scroller – then atleast you can fully style it.

example:

thanks for the input, i had wanted to make the scrollbars the same color as my background, but I think I will just forget about it.
Thanks!

it is a bad idea.

let me explain…..

some people have really bad eyesight and need to have different themes / gui to show the scroll bar better for them, if you play about with that you may be confusing your bad eyesight audience….

keep it simple
