>>In particular, I want to replace the default CHECKBOX with a single pixel
wide, unshaded solid line.

Why? A single-pixel wide line would seem to defeat the purpose of using the
checkbox type for an input tag.


>>I can use BORDER and SCROLLBAR attributes to control TEXT and TEXTAREA
elements but, frustratingly, these don't work with CHECKBOXES or RADIO
buttons.

Again, why? Why would you need scrollbars on a checkbox or radio button?

Why not create your own images and replace the checkboxes and radio buttons
with those? Instead of using <input type="checkbox">, you would use <input
type="image" src="" value="">.
