Description Bill Kendrick 2004-03-05 11:08:51 UTC

Version:           3.2.0 (using KDE 3.2.0,  (3.0))
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.18-bf2.4

Some web pages use HTML CSS tags to alter the colors used when rendering the browser's horizontal and vertical scrollbars.  While it's fine for a page to alter the content WITHIN the canvas to look as ugly as they want it, I dislike my browser's widgets following along. ;^)

It would be nice to either have a simple GUI for allowing and disallowing certain popular CSS annoyances (like I believe we have already for underlining hyperlinks), or some hierarchy of CSS values which we can always override...

In other words "Use the page's CSS, but NEVER change these attributes:  scrollbar-face-color; scrollbar-3dlight-color;..." etc.

Thanks!!!

Obviously, your version of Konqueror will need to pay attention to the CSS code
inside this HTML to see the effect.

Settings -> Stylesheets -> Use user specified stylesheet 
And give a file which contains CSS that got a "! important" in the
rule

thinking about it, it might be a nice addition to the documentation

This is now documented here:
