This example shows how to style the scrollbars in your xul application. Scrollbars inside browser elements will be styled to. Tested on windows xp.
Example assumes a structure like this:
app/chrome/chrome.manifest app/chrome/skin/global/
Copy the scrollbars.css from xulrunner/chrome/classic.jar/skin/classic/global to app/chrome/skin/global/scrollbars.css
Open the app/chrome/chrome.manifest and add:
skin app-global standard/1.0 skin/global/ override chrome://global/skin/xulscrollbars.css chrome://app-global/skin/scrollbars.css
xulscrollbars.css are used for windows xp, and nativescrollbars.css on osx. So to make this work with osx, make an extra override:
override chrome://global/skin/nativescrollbars.css chrome://app-global/skin/scrollbars.css
Change some color values inside the app/chrome/skin/global/scrollbars.css to test that the css is used.
Example xul window:
<?xml version="1.0"?> <?xml-stylesheet href="chrome://global/skin/" type="text/css"?> <window id="sampleWindow" width="320" height="240" xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gat...re.is.only.xul"> <hbox flex="1"> <browser type="content" src="http://mozilla.org" flex="1"/> <scrollbar orient="vertical"/> </hbox> </window>
