Within the Iframe tag put the following code

bordercolor=#rrggbb
frameborder=1 for lines
frameborder=0 for no lines

As for the scroll bars. Color changing will only work with IE5.5+. Add something like this to your style sheet

scrollbar-face-color: #084A94;
scrollbar-base-color: #084A94;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #087A92;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #087A92;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #445555;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #AAAAAA;
scrollbar-track-color: #084A94;
scrollbar-arrow-color: #FFFFFF;


Hope it helped

Tell you what, post the code for the page and I'll have a play in my lunch break.

And yep, Nighfire, you are right :) IE5.5+

tommysphone....do your thing :thumbsup: where/how would you place the styles for the scrollbar settings for the following html code...

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE></TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

<IFRAME NAME="IF1" SRC="http://www.yahoo.com/" WIDTH="600" HEIGHT="250" ALIGN="LEFT">
</FRAME>

</BODY>
</HTML>

Won't work...

The page that is inside the iFRAME needs to have the Scroll-Bar-Color CSS code. You can't call it from outside the iFRAME. Yahoo.com doesn't have the CSS code you want.

If you have another of your pages in the iFRAME, just put the CSS on that page for it to work:
<IFRAME SRC="your-page.html"></IFRAME>

On "your-page.html":

<HTML>
<HEAD>

<STYLE>
body {
scrollbar-face-color: #084A94;
scrollbar-base-color: #084A94;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #087A92;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #087A92;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #445555;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #AAAAAA;
scrollbar-track-color: #084A94;
scrollbar-arrow-color: #FFFFFF;
}
</STYLE>

</HEAD>

acrokos, I am so sorry. My lunch break turned into a holiday :D

Great for me, bad for you :( as I didn't reply. I have been playing with the problem and I'm beat. I thought it could be done but I have failed. Quiet Storm is right. Any other page with his style tag will work fine in the iframe with the effects you want.

I appologise for giving false hope.
