 * Scrollbar - a jQuery plugin for custom scrollbars
 *
 * @author     Thomas Duerr, me@thomd.net
 * @date       03.2010
 * @requires   jquery v1.4.2 
 * @version    0.3
 *
 *
 * Usage:
 *
 *    Append scrollbar to an arbitrary container with overflowed content:
 *
 *         $('selector').scrollbar();
 *
 *
 *    Append scrollbar without arrows on top/bottom:
 *
 *         $('selector').scrollbar({
 *            arrows: false
 *         });
 *
 *
 *
 * A vertical scrollbar is based on the following box model:
 *
 *    +----------------------------------+
 *    |            <----------------------------- content container
 *    |  +-----------------+  +------+   |
 *    |  |                 |  |   <-------------- handle arrow up
 *    |  |                 |  |      |   |
 *    |  |                 |  +------+   |
 *    |  |                 |  | +--+ |   |
 *    |  |                 |  | |  | |   |
 *    |  |                 |  | | <-------------- handle
 *    |  |                 |  | |  | |   |
 *    |  |                 |  | |  | |   |
 *    |  |                 |  | |  | |   |
 *    |  |                 |  | +--+ |   |
 *    |  |                 |  |      |   |
 *    |  |                 |  |   <-------------- handle container
 *    |  |                 |  |      |   |
 *    |  |         <----------------------------- pane
 *    |  |                 |  |      |   |
 *    |  |                 |  |      |   |
 *    |  |                 |  +------+   |
 *    |  |                 |  |      |   |
 *    |  |                 |  |   <-------------- handle arrow down
 *    |  +-----------------+  +------+   |
 *    |                                  |
