main site: olivejar.net
index page minus mobile redirect: http://www.olivejar.net/lessindex.php
mobile site: olivejar.mobi

The Olivejar site (www.olivejar.net) is less than 10 pages and all pages share the same CSS (http://www.olivejar.net/css/ojpcs-web-2009.css)

Other than content, all pages are the same except for index.php, which has a mobile browser detecting script (http://detectmobilebrowsers.mobi) If it sees you are on a mobile device, it sends you over to the mobile version of the site.

So anyway, in validating the CSS for the main site, an odd thing happens. It seems that somehow that script is effect the results of the CSS test. Even odder is that the "problematic" lines do not exist anywhere within any code on either site. Further, the redirect script, as far as I can see, is not responsible for inserting the "bad results."

W3C CSS Validator results for http://www.olivejar.net/index.php (CSS level 2.1)
Sorry! We found the following errors (3)
URI : http://www.olivejar.mobi
11 body Property scrollbar-base-color doesn't exist : #005b70
12 body Property scrollbar-arrow-color doesn't exist : #f3960b
13 body Property scrollbar-darkshadow-color doesn't exist : #000000

"scrollbar-xxxx-color" nor any of the color codes exist on my site anywhere.

Validate the CSS from olivejar.mobi and it passes.
Validate the CSS from any page other than index.php from olivejar.net and it passes.
Validate the CSS on the "lessindex.php" page, which is index.php with the first line removed (the mobile redirect) and is passes.

Might someone here have an idea where this would be coming from?
