Looking for an extension

New Here ,
Jul 17, 2009 Jul 17, 2009

Has anyone seen an extension for controlling the style of radio buttons, input boxes, scrollbars, etc...?  I'd like something that I could get the same look/feel regardless of the users browser.  Most of my users are on IE, and so what I'd really like is to emulate the app to have the look/feel of a mac.  Anyone seen anything like that out there?  I've been going google searches for a few days, but haven't run across anything yet.

Thanks in advance...

Were it so simple?  As Paula said, no extensions for this because it is browser dependant.  Safari form buttons  and scrollbars will always look like Safari form buttons and scrollbars.  IE is the only browser that accepts custom scrollbars.  Other browsers ignore them and the CSS code is not valid.  So what's a person to do?

a) Stop worrying and learn to love browser variation. (Forgive the Dr. Strangelove humor )

b) Use CSS + jQuery

c) Use a form service

d) Use Flash-based forms
