OK try this.
To specify a base colour and allow ie to build the rest of the colours use this:

body
{
scrollbar-base-color: #cc0000;
}

Or to specify your own colours use this

body
{
scrollbar-base-color: #ffffff;
scrollbar-face-color: #ffffff;
scrollbar-track-color: #cc0000;
scrollbar-arrow-color: #cc0000;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #000000;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #000000;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #000000;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #000000;
}

Looking at your site I see you're using frames. Now In your frame holder page you don't have this code... I'm assuming its in the scrolable frames code. Try putting it the frameholder page.
Does the code work when you open the scrolable frame on its own? If it does I'm guessing its a problem with your frames...

Hope this was some help...

Colored Scrollbars work in IE 5.5 and above. They don't work in Opera, NS 4.7 either. What browser are you using?

all of the above...
Well IE5.5, NS 4.7 NS 6. Windows & Mac IE 5 & NS 4.7.
if what you say is correct then it's another loss for our poor NS friends i'll make an ok version for them anyway but the problem still remains.
I am missing something some where but...

Thanks
