How do i change the look and color of the scroll bar on the right of the browser? I've heard that you use Javascripts, anyone know where i can d/l them? will they also work with I-frames? Check out my site and tell me what you think? Not done with it..could use some ideas! <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.angelfire.com/nv2/lordoftherings/tck.htm">http://www.angelfire.com/nv2/lordoftherings/tck.htm</a><!-- m --><br />

Thanks!<!--content-->You have to use CSS. (Cascading Style Sheets) Just do a search for "scrollbar properties" on google or your preferred search engine. or just view the source of a page with changed scrollbar props and change the colors to suit.<br />

One of these as the very first line of the file before <head> would be a good idea:<br />
