Have you noticed this on homepages?  The scrollbars that  you see to your right are colored to match the page.  You can see this effect on my page at Roxydoll12.  Here's how to do it:

Scrollbar color breakdown by attribute

The scrollbar has 7 different parts to it, and the diagram above shows you where they are.  Each of these parts can be made the color of your choice.  Insert the following code into the section of your page that begins <head>:

<style type="text/css">
body {
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #000000;
scrollbar-arrow-color: #000000;
scrollbar-base-color: #000000;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #000000;
scrollbar-face-color: #000000;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #000000;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #000000;
 scrollbar-track-color: #000000;
}
</style>

All you have to do now is replace the #000000 references in the code above to the colors you want to use for your scrollbar, using the diagram above to help you identify the parts.  If you need help identifying the color codes check here.

That's all there is to it.  But one note of caution.  This doesn't show up on all browsers.  You need Internet Explorer version 5.5 for it to work.

To help you generate the code for your scrollbars, here is a scrollbar generator from Botsoak and Dayna:
