I understand how to customize the scrollbars on a stand alone html page.

I cannot seem to get anything to work on scrollbars in frames within a frameset.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld, marmaturtle!

The principle is exactly the same, except that you need to have the CSS that restyles your scrollbars referenced from within the frame (ie link to the CSS file in the head of the frame).

Thanks for the reply. I am really glad that I found WebmasterWorld.

I think I did what you said, and I tried that previously. It does not have any effect on the frame pages, it does work fine on stand alone pages.

Thanks again, Hal

Try putting the css rules for the scrollbars in the source documents for the frame - i.e. mainhome.htm etc.

Thank you. That worked.

I have been to almost every place on the web trying to get this to work.

Not only could no one help I found quite a few forums where others where asking how to make it work with frames.

I really appreciate the help. I am amazed at the response time.

I am going to subscribe to WebmasterWorld!
