who is a CSS master?
 

is there a way to make a scroll bar smaller or thiner in CSS for a certain page?
all I know is how to change the colors

Can't do it.

The color thing only works in IE too, fyi

Don't change user GUI!!!

nope, can't do it in CSS

works for Mozila too , firefox

cant do shit with CSS

i'm a CSI expert.. but in order to help you... im going to need to take a swap of your girlfriends vagina... no time to explain man... hurry up

ok, I see people here know their CSS, so here is another question:
How can one make a layer half transparent, lets say 50% opacity in CSS
BUT not with the usage of the "alpha" filter, e.g:
style.filter="alpha(opacity=50,enabled=1)"

something that can substitute that

Doesn't work for me on default theme in Firefox, never has. But if you can show me a link that changes the color of the scrollbar using CSS in Firefox, be my guest.

Oh, and read this:

http://www.awardsites.com/articles/wsd-scrollbars1.htm

"1. Colored scrollbars are not standard.

One important thing you must know about a colored scrollbar is that it does not work in Gecko-based browsers (Firefox, Netscape Navigator, Mozilla): It is an Internet Explorer's only property. It is not a standard property or a proprietary property. According to W3C, these properties are illegal: they are neither defined in any CSS specification nor are they marked as proprietary (by prefixing them with "-vendor-").

So, it will work only in Internet Explorer, and if you are seeking CSS validation, the CSS will not validate. The objective of this article is to provide some ways of coloring the scrollbar while keeping the CSS stylesheet valid."

To my knowledge alpha is the only way to set opacity in IE and -moz-opacity: (0.0 to 1.0) is the only way to set opacity in Mozilla based broswers.

Why are you looking for a different way to set opacity? Is it because you are having problems with inherited transparency?

yes :)

im a chess master

I agree to some extend. Change little things, like use images as a replacement of buttons, and define input value sizes and their looks, but don't use colored scrollbars, that's plain gay and confuses ordinary users.

You can use position: relative; to keep transparency from being inherited in IE. I don't know how to stop the inheritance in Mozilla.

[HTML]

CSS:

#style_name { filter:alpha(opacity=50); -moz-opacity:0.5; }
#style_name * { position: relative; }
#style_name div { font-weight: bold; color: #000000; }

HTML:

<div id="style_name">
<div>{insert something here}</div>
</div>

[/HTML]

I thought of that
I have to use position: absolute for the entire layer

You shit with your arse.. use CSS for layout.

I'm a master baiter..

Ain't that a bitch then...

:upsidedow

Without really knowing exactly what you're doing I'm pretty much at a loss. Good luck though.
