Absolutely. It is a rather common attitude I guess, sometimes with a logical basis, some times without. Although I like the ability to style scrollbars or form elements by *color only*, that's all I believe a relative CSS module should try to address. IF such a feature was implemented, it would probably provide developers with nothing more than inconsistency if more complicated. You can already have a scrollbar of any shape or color, in any major browser (as IE5+, N6, Opera 5 etc) using some DHTML. CSS already does this as a basic module of DHTML. This provides a GUI designer all the freedom that one would wish for. For more_advanced_than_HTML GUI design, one should build his own library using DHTML and maybe SVG. Kindest regards, Manos
