Scrollbar = image

[Madxgraphics]

Ok here's the thing..Probably not a big thing as things go, but i'm getting kinda confused and lost at the same time...I'm putting together a site for a mate..He wants the scrollbar to contain the same image as the background of the page...I know I can change the colors of the scrollbar using CSS, but is it possible to uuse Javascript to add the image to the scroll bar..? Image is in .gif form....



Edit: I've only been using Javascript for about a year and a half so still learning..Please be gentle...

It's not possible to add an image to the scrollbar as far as I'm aware - but you can force the page to have no scrollbar and then create a new one using JS which has the same functions:

I would avoid it personally as it will cause headaches down the line when something changes in a new browser (I've learnt this lesson myself the hard way), so it's worth keeping in mind that it might need changing in future.

Thanks Ian...lol your answer gets me out of something I thouught might not work or could be problimatic down the line...The less JS I use the happier I am...
