For people who use the "grab and drag" extension, scrollwheels or scroll functions on touch pads, rather than the scrollbar, simply for people obsessed with screen 'real estate'...

It removes scrollbars from everywhere, including textboxes and the like.

This is a simple piece of code, but it makes sense to use it in stylish rather than in userchrome/usercontent.css because some people might want to turn this off and on sometimes.

I've been using firefox without scrollbars for months now, the only time when i miss them is when i read extremely long texts and would like to have a clue where about in the document I am at the moment.

THIS USUALLY NEEDS AT LEAST RELOAD OF PAGE, IN SOME CASES OPENING A NEW TAB OR WINDOW TO TAKE EFFECT.

overflow:hidden makes scrolling slower on slow hardware... is there no other way for FF3 ? ****

Try.....

browser
{
overflow: hidden !important;
}

...in Firefox 3. I'm using this in conjunction with the Grab and Drag and SmoothWheel add-ons.

Cheers,

Cool, works for me ;)

But I have a little request--- could you make an Auto-Hide version, please?
I think that this option could be usefull.

Thanks and Greetings ;) *****

It's only hides the scrollbars in browser chrome for me, e.g. Stylish, about:config, etc. Every time I reload the page, userstyles.org says style is updated... ****
