Between border and padding is generally recognised as being the best place.

It would be perfectly fine for a UA to have no scrollbars at all and simply allow the element to be scrolled using a panning mechanism. -- Ian Hickson )\._.,--....,'``. fL "meow" /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,. http://index.hixie.ch/ `._.-(,_..'--(,_..'`-.;.'
