The Validator is being screwy with scrollbar colors in CSS

[animgirl]

How-D peoples,

Been validating my CSS for my site and ran into something that floors me.

I have the following in my CSS:body {
display:block;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
background: #9c6584;
color: #ffffff;
font: bold .75em/1.2em verdana, tahoma, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;
scrollbar-base-color:#9c6584;
scrollbar-face-color:#9c6584;
scrollbar-highlight-color:#9c6584;
scrollbar-3dlight-color:#C08FA6;
scrollbar-shadow-color:#7B5163;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color:#84596B;
scrollbar-arrow-color:#634;
}

Validator says the scrollbar properties do not exist.
What's missing here?

Aren't scrollbar color attributes and properties "browser specific" and so invalid?
Of course, the way my day has been going, I'm probably totally off the mark.:)

Well I didn't think the validator cared about that, it just wants to fix your code.

I dunno, I'm totally lost.

Animgirl,

I did some checking and foung out that the scrollbar color properties are Microsoft extensions of css and aren't part of the W3 css spec. so that's why they don't validate.:( I was hoping I was wrong about that in my earlier post.

Sorry,

Joe

It's not valid but will do no harm if you keep them.
