Try Firefox, it doesn't do coloured scrollbars

Is that a secret gem?

I wondered why mine looked fine.

(Tried IE... see what you mean).

It's the choice you should be making anyway!

I should add a small 'thank you' for that particular post, as I thought I just couldn't program when I lost control of scrollbars, took the easy route and just gave up on the assumption I was too thick to understand the syntax (even thought all the other toys in the box were working) :roll:

Unfortunately at my work (and presumably most people's) we don't have the option of Firefox as IE is the corporate choice. Sigh. Guess i will just have to live with it then eh

Is this a way of telling me i should be working at work?

I installed firefox at my work anyway, cos IE kept crashing and it was driving me up the wall... :roll:

If you are allowed to use USB flash drives you can put put portable Firefox on one of those and it wont leave any residue on the machine your using.

Thanks for that. Will check it out!

Unfortunately though the way our PCs are set up there is a proxy and config script path set up when the PC is built that is not user configurable - you can't access the web without going through the proxy.

Such is the world of banking i'm afraid. I'm surprised they haven't blocked HG yet.. most of my other fun sites are in breach of some part of the groups internet policy - he it even blocked Boots webpage once because somewhere in the html tags the site had the word sex listed several times. :)

What's 'firefox'?

by **glasgowken** » Fri Apr 07, 2006 12:18 pm

A Clint Eastwood film :wink:

Besides being a Clint movie it's an another web browser
altenative to Internet Explorer. Good for folks that are
not running a Microsoft operating system :wink:
