I want my scroll to have a transparent background, for the scroll to be a slight white dash and have a up arrow and down arrow at the top...this is how i am customising at the moment. It gives me a grey long scroll...but i dont know what to edit to change it?
::-webkit-scrollbar {
width: 10px;
height: 6px;
}
::-webkit-scrollbar-button:start:decrement,
::-webkit-scrollbar-button:end:increment {
height: 30px;
display: block;
background-color: transparent;
}
::-webkit-scrollbar-track-piece {
background-color: transparent;
-webkit-border-radius: 6px;
}
::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb:vertical {
height: 50px;
background-color: #666;
-webkit-border-radius: 6px;
}
::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb:horizontal {
width: 50px;
background-color: #666;
-webkit-border-radius: 3px;
}
Answered a question like this before, here are three jQuery plugins that do a good job at custom scrollbars across all browsers:
- jScrollpane
- jQueryUI slider plugin
- and jQuery SlimScroll
Fist, I just want to make sure you know this only works in webkit browsers (Chrome and Safari).
Here is a more complete sample, as you can see, it takes a lot of css to get something that looks decent.
<head>
<style>
/* set the width and height */
::-webkit-scrollbar {
width: 14px;
height: 6px;
}
/* turn on the buttons at the top */
::-webkit-scrollbar-button:start{
display: block;
}
/* turn off the buttons at the bottom */
::-webkit-scrollbar-button:end{
display: none
}
::-webkit-scrollbar-track-piece {
background-color: transparent;
-webkit-border-radius: 6px;
}
::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb:vertical {
height: 50px;
background-color: #666;
-webkit-border-radius: 6px;
}
::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb:horizontal {
width: 50px;
background-color: #666;
-webkit-border-radius: 3px;
}

This post has some pretty good info on scroll-bar css
http://css-tricks.com/custom-scrollbars-in-webkit/
This post has a few jquery solutions that might be worth looking at, in particular Tiny Scrollbar which has support for some devices.
