Hi,

Before adding the shadowbox (which is fantastic) to my web site I had the scrollbar colour. I had the following code in my css file. After the shadowbox script has been added the scrollbar has now gobe back to standard colour. How can I make it work with below code again please ?

BODY{
scrollbar-arrow-color: #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #666666;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-face-color: #0078BE;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #666666;
scrollbar-track-color: #DEDEDE;
}

Does anyone else know why this is happening. Has it something to do with changing the BODY as I had some other code on the <BODY> section that I had to remove that was causing issues with shadowbox.

Do you have a link for a test case available? It would be much easier to figure this out.

Too easy. Thank you so much. So should the correct command be using html instead of body when changing scrollbar properties?

Apparently. It seems the body element doesn't properly apply those properties in this case.
