HI,

Is there a scroll bar design in the CoffeeCup HTML Editor? Like changing the color and all.

HAVE A GREAT DAY as the northeast of the United States gets ready for a Winter Storm to blow through for thursday, March 2nd, 2006.

Hi there,
When using the wizard (quick start) to set up a new page in HTML Editor, you can see that there are a number of options for a coloured scroll bar. Just go to "customize scrollbar"...

Here is the one I use, for instance:

<style>
body{
scrollbar-base-color: #000000;
}
</style>

This code goes just before the </head> tag.

And this is one I prepared the script for just for the fun of seeing what you are able to do with the scroll bars:

<style type="text/css">
<!--
/* Custom Scrollbar Colors */
body{
scrollbar-arrow-color: #99CC00;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #FF9933;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #66FFFF;
scrollbar-face-color: #FF6600;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #009999;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #CC3300;
scrollbar-track-color: #FF6600;
}
-->
</style>


Just copy and paste all that into an empty page of your own to try out the different colours......

Janys,

Thank you for being insane enough to even try and experiment with the scroll bar. (Insane is GOOD!) I'm going to have fun playing with the new toy you gave me!

Hi folks,

Now I know CoffeeCup HTML Editor is fully loaded. Including editing the Scroll Bar. Awesome!!

Had to find away to make one for my website by learning others website in the past. Getting it from website source.

THANK YOU!!!

Have a great weekend everyone!!

This is weird. When I had the free version of the HTML Editior, I had the scrollbar options you describe. Now that I have the paid version, I do not. I've tried every function and menu item - from the Quick Start Wizard to the Style Sheet Wizard - and can no longer find anything for creating colored scrollbars. Am I the only one?

Hi there Michael,
If you look at my post date, you will see that it goes back to 2006. I think you will now find that the coloured scroll bars are not approved css code, and this is probably the reason that the latest versions of the Editor no longer offer that option.
I notice that the one site I still had the coloured scroll bar on is now only showing the default browser colour, so this probably means that not even the browsers are accepting the coloured scroll bars anymore.
So I guess we just move forward and be pleased that the browsers are beginning to use similar standards, which has to be an improvement!!!
LOL

Thank you, Janys. Believe it or not, I still use IE6 (for testing purposes only - Firefox is my regular browser), so I wasn't aware that current versions of IE don''t support colored scrollbars. Since most site visitors still use IE, I thought it would be nice to have custom scrollbars, but if the Web browser as we know it is moving away from that, then I'm fine without such an option.

Thanks again!

Hi Mike,

As Janys said, it's no longer approved coding which is why the option no longer exist as an option in HTML Editor. However, you will find that a lot of sites still use it. Somethings never get old for some people. If you'd like to still use it, here's a link to a site that creates the coding for you.

It only works in IE anyway.

Like all the people that still like to use the marquee tag
