I want this div (menulink) to highlight on a mouse over or hover the entire div like this website has there colorful menu bar. w w w DOT entheosweb DOT com/dreamweaver/default.asp the bar i am talking about starts with teal, green... ect If you notice you can select the text with in that rollover. so when I use a rollover i cant see any option to do that. Now I have learn how to do a " a hover" css with text links but it dose not hightlight the whole div container. I have tried a behavior on the div tag and that works but dose not disappear on mouse out. I have tried many combinations of multiple behaviors and single combinations with all the option with in them. No such luck.... I will thank any one advance who can help me with this. Ps i don't want to use rollovers because of how big the web site is even with PS actions set up to speed up the process of editing each roll over img. Similar TutorialsI moved internal css to an external file and then linked the page to that file and lost my hand cursor on links. How do i get it back. Right now the arrow cursor remains when links are rolled over. Can be viewed at. kopertone.com/newsite/index1.html Also, in fire fox, I want dotted lines under my text links when rolled over, but not image links; how do I remove the dotted lines under my image links? Thanks! I've been using on MouseOver and such for ages, however I've seen other means of detecting and acting on mouseovers/mouseouts and such. I need to learn how to do this using <div> or <td> elements - I'm not prepared to use <ul> and <li>, I don't understand the concept yet. From what I've seen, I should be able to have something along the lines of #button.over {attributes}. I do not know the details, but in effect, the element's CSS attributes would be automatically changed when a mouseover is detected and an 'over' class is supplied. Let me know if you need any further information - otherwise, thanks in advance for any insight you may provide. i want to be able to have a site that has a table with some info, and a button next to it.. when the button is clicked on, a CSS pop-over opens and allows the person to type text, and submit... i can deal with the submit and php and such... i just need to know how to make the DHTML/CSS work for me. How do I create roll over tab menu bar in CSS? I keep looking up ways to do this, but I find only ways to download it from a website (which I fear may have a virus) or in dreamweaver (which I don't have). Also if it's not too much to ask please connect the tabs as well. I have spent 2 full days trying to figure this out. The last thing is I would like to have it centered. If anyone can show me how it is done I would be very thankful. Hey there I like making websites and for this one website i want to make it look really good and then buy a domain name when I'm done, but I can't figure the code in css to make an image appear at 500px down and 50px to the left when my mouse is over a link . If someone could help me with this I would be so happy! Thank you and have a nice day I been looking at a tutorial about roll over but I'm having a slight problem. I made the image I want to change but it aint working, can anyone please help me. the code i have so far is: CSS: Code: ul#link1 li a { background-position: 0 0; } ul#link1 li a:hover { background-position: 0 -28px; /* the second number should be the negative height of the link. */ } #link1 { background-image: url(images/nav_home.gif); } HTML: Code: <li class="link1"><a href="index.php">link1</a></li> The image: pls refer to: http://www.myshops.com.sg/atomio/ http://www.myshops.com.sg/atomio/screen.css Spent all night trying to solve two problems. 1. When mouse over the second image, the weird spacing disappeared. It doesn't happen for the first or third image, although I just duplicate the DIV code. 2. Height:100% for the side color boxes doesn't seen to be working after a certain length? Thanks. I am following a tutorial on the book "Stylin with css" by Charles Wike Smith, and in one of the excercises he walks you through the creation of roll over menus. Im almost at the last stage of the tutorial and it works fine on FireFox, but unfortunately I do not what im doing wrong because the fixes for IE are not working properly, I already went through the tutorial and I cant find what Im doing wrong. Any help will be appreciatted, thanks. Here is my excercise, it works on firefox but not on IE: http://www.aplistia.com/unitedTours/test.htm Need guidance on how to set up CSS. Thanks Hi everyone. I am completely new to web design. I am using Dreamweaver 8 pro. I have found out that I like the background image feature to layers very much. It is very much better than tables. Unfortunately, I can't find a way to have layers be centered in reference to the browser (The way I can align tables). Is there any way to do this? Please help. Thanks, Newbie Hey, im sorry if this has allrdy been covered I have created a website in dream weaver cs3, i upload it everything works bar back ground images in tables. The url is gepro.oxyhost.com all help greatly appreciated thx guys Hi all! I've been teaching myself web-design in my spare time for a while, and I've got most of the basics down (I think!). I have a problem. I was using Dreamweaver cs3 and I put a vertical spry menu into my page - All was fine. Cue update to cs5. No I know that this shouldn't have effected anything, but something has changed, and now my sub menus all appear UNDER the rest of the elements on the page. I haven't really used z-index much before. I have tinkered with it a little, but it didn't seem to change anything. I am now stumped. This problem seems to occur across all browsers. Can anyone help? hi everyone, i designed my first site with dremaweaver 3 but had problems with browser compatability. people have been telling me i should use css now as it's better so which version of dreamweaver should i be using now? thank you Well this isn't too much of a problem basically my form displays one way in dreamweaver and another when I preview the site any idea why its pretty annoying. heres how it looks in dreamweaver and heres it in a browser Hi there, Wondering if you can help me ... I have a site that was coded for me and when i open up the index.html pages in code and design view in Dreamweaver - the items in the sidebar (coded with css and using the ul and li tags) don't show up .... allowing me to only edit the text in code view and not design view. When previewing it in browser it is fine. I am a visual person so would really like to be able to see the text/images and elements in design view. perhaps small code is missing? or settings in dreamweaver... i have tried everything and can;t find Please help!

These are Dev Boxes that I created for my site. One of the text on one of the pages is 1700 pixels height the others are only 700. When I created a rule for all pages but when I added the text on the one with 1700 pixels it stretched out all the boxes on all other pages as well. I want to break that one from the others so that it does not format all my pages like that one. How do I do it. I do I keep the CSS code style but on that one in particular change the rule to only allow that one to be 1700 pixels long. Basically I don't want to have to recode the CSS page but I want that particular code to be just for that one page and keep the others with the 700 pixels height. Please give me a simple explanation on how to break the rule on that page so that I can manually adjust it for that one page. thanks Hi, I'm trying to create a menu bar using CSS (I'm not sure if this is the best way to do it. Maybe I should be using frames for this menu bar so I'm not constantly copying and pasting code from page to page?) Anyway, my problem is that everything appears fine when I view the page in the browser using F12 (this creates a temporary file). But when I try to view index.htm by double clicking on it, the CSS style hasn't been applied to the text at all. I have spent hours on this to no avail. Can someone please please help? thanks, Jean Hi everyone, I am having a very difficult problem using Dreamweaver and I would be very grateful for any advice given. I recently created a simple website using layers and when I previewed it, it looked great and it had no reported browser errors. I had several people view it and only one of my friends had trouble seeing it. He said that the layers were out of position and sometimes overlaped. We both were using Explorer 6.0. The only difference between our computers is that he has a 21" monitor while I have a 17". Would that effect the web page design? Why are the layers not positioning correctly? If anyone needs to view the website it can be seen at http://sky.prohosting.com/lovecare Please help me! Thanks, Steve When using the following code, the "Design" preview does not display correctly within Dreamweaver MX 2004, but it does display correctly in all browsers. Does anyone know if this a problem with Dreamweaver or my CSS code. Update:- removing "position:absolute" from #infoPanel fixes the design preview problem, but this isn't really a solution, as I need to position absolutely. The only problem I've got is the design preview in Dreamweaver. I am happy with the final browser output, but the layout is awful within Dreamweaver.

I tested the site in Netscape and Opera and found that the CSS positioning i was using (DIVs) caused inconsistent layout accross the browsers. I used absolute positioning instead of relative, which seemed to solve all my problems.....not so. Now, for some reason, the pop-up menu appears behind the main content layer. I am quite new to using CSS for layout so forgive me if the answer to my problem is simple. Google (my usual saviour) proved to be of little help. Any help would be welcome, thanks. Dunc |
