CSS - Background Image Disappear And Appeared On Mouse Hover
Similar TutorialsHello, I am trying to get two image links (that look like tabs) to get to work on my web page. What I want to have is a tab that when a user hovers over it, the background image appears (just a different version of the original image). So my HTML is: Code: <table> <tr> <td><a class="flights"><img src="/images/buttons/f.gif"></a></td> <td><a class="vacations"><img src="/images/buttons/v.gif"></a></td> </tr> <table /> and my CSS is: Code: .flights { background:url(/images/buttons/f_h.gif) center top no-repeat; width: 78px; height: 41px; /* background-image: url(/images/buttons/f_h.gif); */ margin-right: 1px; } .flights:hover img { visibility: hidden; } .vacations { /* background:url(/images/buttons/v_h.gif) top left no-repeat; */ background-image: url(/images/buttons/v_h.gif); } For some reason in FF (have not tested in IE) the background image sticks out a little at the bottom even though both images used are exactly the same size. Then when I hover over the tab, its background image appears but it is about halfway down from the foreground image. Any insights as to why this might be happening? Hi- Please view this page in both FF and IE: http://www.highpeakssoftware.com/test/home.html when hovering over the links on the left, a small arrow should appear next to each one. I am acheiving this by specifying each <a>'s background-image as the arrow with a left position of -16px (which places it outside the border, so it's invisible), then making it visible by changing it's left position to 0 when it is hovered over. you can search for the following declaration in the css: Code: div#subnav ul li a:hover or line 164 to see the code however, in IE, it seems to be reloading the image on every hover (you can see the delayed response, as well as the hourglass very briefly on hover) This is extremely annoying anyone know of any ways around this bug? Am trying to solve an annoying IE problem: I have a menu which I has a background image which should appear when rolled over. Unfortunatly this works on Firefox but not IE. In internet explorer, nothing changes when the menu item is rolled over ( hovered ) .. any ideas? The code is: Code: #item, #item2, #item3, #item4 { height:24px; width:147px; border:1px solid #dddddd; padding-top:14px; padding-left:15px; } #item:hover, #item2:hover, #item3:hover, #item4:hover { color:white; } #item:hover { background-image:url(homeRollover.png); } #item2:hover { background-image:url(aboutusRollover.png); } #item3:hover { background-image:url(servicesRoll.png); } #item4:hover { background-image:url(contactusRoll.png); } Hi guys, Is it possible in CSS to change the colour / image of the page background dynamically. So that as you hovered over different links , the background of the page changed. I know you can do this in JS but how would you do it in CSS? I was kinda thinking something like: a.linkname:hover, a.linkname:focus body { background-color:#00FF00; } but thats just a guess and doesnt work lol. Many Thanks, Alvin. All but the last image disappear in IE6 (works in FF and Safari). I searched the web for a bug fix but have not found anything that works. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Thank you Im writing a combination navigation bar and contextual layout box model for a large dynamically generated site. The contextual layout is so that i can set a variable in the appropriate markup and then have the correct collumns display. I have two problems. #1. When I mouse over the menus and try to go down my menus they dissapear. If I take out the layout styling they work properly in both IE and Firefox. #2. Anyway to get the menus to appear above form elements? I would appreciate any help.... my code...

it has a hover effect using css a:hover. I also need to have a click state for this button, so that each time the button is clicked it switches between two different states (4 states total). Is this possible? I'm assuming this will probably require JavaScript which I have little experience. Thanks in advance for any help! How can I make this using his image??? charmingwp com / exprecious-wordpress-theme/ The demo and download box?? The picture is Quote: /wp-content/themes/expose/images/preview gif I've got a problem with the background on hover. It's just a smidge too low and I can't figure out how to raise the background without raising the text. If you look at the image below, you'll notice that the hover "courses & events" is just a bit too low. (real stuff is on a development site, with themes, master pages, etc., and doesn't have a dns beyond our firewall) Any help appreciated. http://www.mahec.net/images/a.jpg #topBar { position:absolute; padding:0; width:800px; background:#78658c; filter: Alpha(Opacity=90, FinishOpacity=30, Style=1, StartX=0, StartY=90, FinishX=0, FinishY=30); -moz-opacity:.60; opacity: 0.6; border-top:solid 1px #000000; height:25px; overflow:hidden; } #topInnerBar a { text-decoration:none; color:#F9F9E4; font-weight:bold; line-height:27px; margin-top:-5px; padding:2px 10px 5px; } #topInnerBar a:hover { text-decoration:none; color:#593F72; font-weight:bold; line-height:27px; margin-top:-5px; padding:2px 10px 5px; background:#F9F9E4; } I'm using <LI> to make vertical menu with image hover effect? It seems quite good and working properly in both IE and Firefox. But In IE6 hover effect comes slowly after nearly 1 seocnd. Is there any solution? following is my css code. Code: #navigation { width:160px; font:bold 14px Arial, Geneva, Helvetica, sans-serif; } #navigation ul {list-style: none; margin: 0; padding: 0;} #navigation ul li a {display:block; background:url(button-menu2.png) no-repeat; vertical-align: bottom; font-size:12px; font-weight:bold; text-align: left; padding-top: 6px; padding-left: 18px; height: 20px !important; height: 20px; width: 100%; text-decoration: none; color: #ffffff; } #navigation ul li a:hover {text-decoration: none; background-position: 0px -25px; color: #fff;} Hi, I am trying to set background color on hover for a single table of links, rather than the entire document like the below example shows. http://www.projectseven.com/tutorials/css/pseudoclasses/ I have tried various ways, I do not want to use javascript for this and I am aware of the way to apply background color to the .td field but this also applys to the normal text not just links. So my question is how do I apply the background hover color to one table of links instead of the body. Thanks! Hi All, Anyone know of a way to change acheive this behaviour? I want to have several links in LI and when one hovers over the LI, the background of the whole UL changes (not just the background of the list item itself). Thanks in advance for any pointers. Cheers, :)Ben I am trying to learn CSS and am currently trying to mirror a website to practice. I would post the website I am mirroring but due to the forum rules, I cannot. I am trying to replicate the black background with opacity for the a:link and the white background with opacity for the a: hover. My browser is IE and I have tried the filter:alpha(opacity=1-100) but to no avail. Here is the HTML I am using for this particular container: <div id="fivels"> <div id="classone"> <a class="home" href="#">Home</a> <a class="gallery" href="#">Gallery</a> <a class="about" href="#">About</a> <a class="help" href="#">Help</a> <a class="partner" href="#">Partner</a> </div> </div> And here is my CSS: #fivels { margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; height: 150px; width: 800px; background-image: /* the forum will not let me post URLs, gut a jpg of grass goes here */ } #classone { margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; width: 800px; text-align: center; } #classone a:link { color: white; text-decoration: none; background-color: black; filter: alpha(opacity=20); } #classone a:visited { color: white; text-decoration: none; background color: black; filter: alpha(opacity=20); } #classone a:hover { color: white; text-decoration: none; background-color: white; filter: alpha(opacity=20); } .home { padding: 3.2em; } .gallery { padding: 3.2em; } .about { padding: 3.2em; } .help { padding: 3.2em; } .partner { padding: 3.2em; } Also, on a side note, is using the padding attribute the most efficient way of seperating the links? Hi there, I am trying to create a link which will have a bacground colour appear "around" it when on hover. I currently have a background image, but I tried adding a margin with a background color, but it is not working. This is my code: PHP Code: a.button{ background-image: url('img/button.png'); height: 22px; width: 210px; font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: #ffffff; text-decoration: underline; padding: 3px 0 0 5px; margin: 20px; } a.button:hover{ background-image: url('img/button.png'); height: 22px; width: 210px; font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: #ffffff; text-decoration: underline; padding: 3px 0 0 5px; margin: 20px; background-color: #f6f6f6; } Any ideas how I can acheive this? Thanks Thanks for taking the time to read my question. I have a <li> that has a background-color and border. I would like it to become transparent when the user hovers over it. In my a:hover I have background-color: transparent; but that is not working. Any ideas? Thanks, Brad I am working on modifying a drupal theme style sheet. I am having trouble over riding a table row hover background color. The style sheet has the background color defined as Code: .block .menu a:hover { background-color:#ecf4f8; } I am working in the footer block trying to over ride the background color as transparent. Everything I try is not working. The theme has a bunch of these classes defined as "Power" Hover Classes. So, back to my footer block modification. Here are the inherited classes when I inspect the element, pinpointing the background-color for hover that is not being overridden for transparent. Code: div.node .field .field-label-inline, div.node .field .field-label-inline-first, .node-links ul.links:hover, .comment-links ul.links:hover, .view .grouped-admin:hover, .multistep li.active-step, .form-text:focus, .form-textarea:focus, .form-select:focus, .prose a:hover, table tr:hover td, table td.active, .block table tr.active, .block .menu a:hover { background-color: #ECF4F8; } Can anyone help me write a css over-ride in my footer block for this? Hi there, I have a text field which I would like to change colour on hover. Any ideas how I would do this? I tried using a class with a:hover but it didn't work. Thanks! I have these two areas. Code: .MenuItem { color:#FFFFFF; font-size:12px; background-color:#CC0000; font-weight:bold; height:18px; padding-top:5px; padding-bottom:5px; border-top:0px solid #FF0000; border-left:2px solid #FF0000; border-bottom:2px solid #FF0000; border-right:2px solid #FF0000; } .MenuItemTop { color:#FFFFFF; font-size:12px; background-color:#CC0000; font-weight:bold; height:18px; padding-top:5px; padding-bottom:5px; border-top:2px solid #FF0000; border-left:2px solid #FF0000; border-bottom:2px solid #FF0000; border-right:2px solid #FF0000; } which refer to the left nav. My code only changes the color behind the text, not the entire area (box) behind the text. Code: .MenuItemTop a:hover, .MenuItem a:hover { color:#FFFFFF; text-decoration:underline; font-size:12px; background-color:#000000; } Any ideas why? example at : http://www.pierced.ca/FeedProductionRecordsHelp.htm Brad |
