And he is how users that don't like them can make sure they never have to see them. :)

Well, then why don't you style your own browser's scrollbars pussypink or however you want them?

Thanks dudes! :D Hmmm Meow? I don't see what's the problem with coloured scroll bars - I think they look great if they're used with the right site design. :classic2:

BTW, I'm using Dreamweaver (version 3 or 4 I think) templates on my site, so If i edit the HTML from a .dwt file (Dreamweaver users will know what I'm talking about - that's the template file), I can add in the coloured scroll bar Code and it should work on all pages using that template??? :eek:

Yeah all html editors can do that, the trick is learning to do it yourself

I have no problem with them since I don't use IE6 or 5.5. I just offered the information on how to get rid of them since a lot off people do find them a PITA.
But I'm sure I would loath them almost as bad as customized "context menus" if I used those browsers. :biggrin2:
