CSS Scrollbar Styling - Qomplainerz - 07-26-2023
Description:
You can customize the appearance of scrollbars in modern browsers using the ::-webkit-scrollbar pseudo-element.
Example:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>CSS Scrollbar Styling Example</title>
<style>
/* Style the scrollbar track and thumb */
::-webkit-scrollbar {
width: 10px;
}
::-webkit-scrollbar-track {
background-color: #f1f1f1;
}
::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb {
background-color: #888;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div style="height: 300px; overflow-y: auto;">
<!-- Add long content to enable scrollbar -->
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit...</p>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Explanation:
In this example, we use the ::-webkit-scrollbar pseudo-element to style the scrollbar in WebKit-based browsers (e.g., Chrome, Safari). The ::-webkit-scrollbar allows you to customize the scrollbar's width and appearance. ::-webkit-scrollbar-track styles the track (the background area behind the thumb), and ::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb styles the thumb (the draggable scrolling handle).
