Scrollbar Validation......

[tcustom]

Just a curious question.....

I have this code included in my .css file:
BODY{
scrollbar-face-color:#80A470;
scrollbar-arrow-color:#FFCC00;
scrollbar-track-color:#C6DCAD;
scrollbar-shadow-color:#000000;
}
Which is normal css for changing the side scrollbar colors.

When I validate at W3C's CSS Validator I get the following errors below:
Line: 0 Context : BODY
Property scrollbar-face-color doesn't exist : #80a470
Line: 0 Context : BODY
Property scrollbar-arrow-color doesn't exist : #ffcc00
Line: 0 Context : BODY
Property scrollbar-track-color doesn't exist : #c6dcad
Line: 0 Context : BODY
Property scrollbar-shadow-color doesn't exist : #000000

Is this just a function on these commands just being recognized under IE 5.5 and above?
Thanx........

That's IE proprietary code and won't validate because it's not part of the W3 specs.

It's not valid CSS, so it won't validate. That's IE specific styling, that MS invented. As the error says the property doesn't exist in the CSS standards.

You can use it in a page, and it will just be ignored by other browsers. So it doesn't "break" anything, but it will never validate either.
