I agree the knobimage is just window dressing.
It was only there to make the scroll bar "look like the one in windows" as
was the client requirments.
It can do without..
AS for the arrow buttons...
The use of dynimage was so that I could simply use the onclick of the
dynimage object
rather then arite the html to do the clicking via an href around the image.
using the onclick of the image comes to mind..
But I do not recall this being a viable option in NS4x
we are still supporting (and testing?) ns4x right?

Or has everybody forgotten about that?
