xhtml does not allow such things to be done.  You will have to change the doctype to HTML 4.

Actually, I have changed scrollbar colors with XHTML myself, so I know that IE supports it.

It's possible that it requires an XML declaration and not just the doctype. If so, try adding this at the top of the template:

<?php echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>'; ?>
(You can't type it directly in the template, as the <? at the beginning of the XML declaration would be interpreted as PHP code)

If you put the xml declaration, IE will not see the doc type, and will decide it is HTML 4.  This will make it work.

Trust me, IE will not do the main scroll bar in XHTML.

Replace the first line of template.php with this:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//w3c//dtd html 4.01 transitional//en">

Either - It doesn't matter how you do it. Either add it to the template in the admin section, or to the actual template.php file.
