Heidi,

Ian Singer made some comments about Heidi's site, and the most notable was
that on the third page the scollbar wasn't working in non Internet Explorer
Browsers.

There are a couple of things that need to be done to rectify the problem,
and they are:-

1.. Make a small change to styles in the head, i.e..

<style type="text/css">
html, body {
scrollbar-arrow-color: #4C3548;
scrollbar-base-color: #4C3548;
scrollbar-dark-shadow-color: #4C3548;
scrollbar-track-color: #4C3548;
}
</style>

2.. The script in the body needs to have the 23rd line rewritten as:-

window.document.body.style.overflow='auto';

... and the page will show the scrollbar as intended in all browsers, though
with the designer colored scrollbar only showing in the IE browsers and the
browser default scrollbar in the others.
