Does this:

<style type="text/css">

</style>

not apply to firefox. The reason I ask is that It works on ie but on firefox it shows a normal scroller.

no, its a microsoft thing.

its also invalidates your css.

grafiks · 04-11-2005, 05:12

is there a way around it in firefox

emil · 04-11-2005, 05:16

No. That scrollbar code was a proprietary extension to CSS that Microsoft proposed back in IE 5.5 days. It was not taken up by the W3C so consequently it's not valid and you "shouldn't" use it. If you have a MAC running OSX you don't need it anyway as you get groovy looking scrollbars built in
