CSS - Hover Style Is Lost After Js Change Of Style
I have a menu bar made up of <a href> elements that have a hover style of:
PHP Code:
#mainMenu a:hover { color:#000000; background-color: #66c74c; padding: 1px 4px 1px 4px; margin: 1px 1px 1px 1px; } This will provide a green colored rollover visual as the user moves their mouse over the menu bar. I just added some JS today that will highlight the clicked (selected) menu so there is visual feedback of the section the user is in. For some reason, after setting the background color of the <a href> and color attributes, the HOVER: no longer functions. Here is the code to do the hilite where I pass the ID of the <a href> menu selection in the variable "menu": PHP Code: //--- Simplify setup by creating an array of the menus and hilight ID's --- var menus = ["menu1","menu2","menu3","menu4","menu5", "menu6","menu7","menu8","menu9","menu10"]; function J_hiliteMenu(menu) { //--- first make sure all the menu are hidden and unhilited --- for(i=0; i < menus.length; i++) { if (menus[i] == menu) theIndex = i; // Hold on to the chosen index position var obj = document.getElementById(menus[i]); if (obj == null) continue; // if menu is not available skip it obj.style.color = "#ffffff"; obj.style.backgroundColor = "#234fd7"; } //--- hilite the menu we're interested in --- var obj = document.getElementById(menu); obj.style.color = "#000000"; obj.style.backgroundColor = "#f8f400"; } Prior to hiliting the menu I un-hilite all the menus (since we may be switching from another). I think this is where the problem is. Maybe I need to redefine the rollover "hover" attribute for all elements during the un-hilite loop? Does anyone know how to set a HOVER: attribute using JavaScript? Thanks! Similar TutorialsHi, I'm new to CSS and am trying to design my blog template. For the styles, I have this so far: Code: <style type="text/css"> #navbar-iframe{display: none;height: 0;} body{background: #FFFFFF; font: 13px arial;color: #999;line-height: 150%;} .left { width: 460px; text-align:justify; } .right { width: 180px;font: bold 11px arial;color: #c8c8c8; } .navigations{ background: #6a6a6a; text-decoration: blur; padding-top: 1px; border-bottom: 3px solid #666 ;float: right; width: 190px; font: 28px arial; color: #aaa; line-height: 200%;text-transform: lowercase; letter-spacing: -2px; } .navigations :hover{ font: 28px arial; text-decoration: none; padding-top: 1 px; border-bottom: 3px solid #666; float: right; width: 190px; color: #F2EAEA; background: #777; line-height: 200%;text-transform: lowercase; letter-spacing: -2px; cursor: crosshair } .cloud { font: 26px georgia;letter-spacing: 1px;color: #BDA28F } .icon {border: 20px solid #eee; width:100px; height:100px;} .h1 { font: 20px times new roman;color: #FD0479; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height:18px;text-transform:uppercase} .h2 { font: 12px arial; color: #6a6a6a; letter-spacing: 1px; text-transform: lowercase;padding:4px;background: url((URL address blocked: See forum rules)); } .h3 { font: 12px arial; color: #6a6a6a; letter-spacing: 1px; font-weight:bold;padding:4px;} a:link,a:active,a:visited {font: 12px arial; color: #aaa; border-bottom: 1px solid #6a6a6a; text-decoration: none;text-transform: none;letter-spacing: 0px; } a:hover { color: #8BC4C4; border-bottom: 1px solid #e8e8e8;background: #f2f2f2; text-decoration: none; cursor: crosshair} b { color: #BE0304;font-weight:bold; } i { color: #FA727C; } s { color: #ddd; } em {font-family: georgia} blockquote{ color: #999; background: #f5f5f5;padding: 8px; } </style> But I can't seem to get the hover navigations to change background colour and text colour. What am I doing wrong? Thanks! <div style="blah"> What would be used to put :hover in the style tag in place of 'blah'? hello, Im running a website that uses the hover css style to change the button from a darker colored text to a lighter colored text (two different images) but when I go to the web page and hover over it it disappears, only for a second but its still annoying, and then replaces it with the new image. is there any way to get rid of this brief disappearance? I am just wondering if there is a way to simply extend a style rule from one previously defined. For instance, if I have this rule: Code: .textarea-box { color: #990000; background-color: #fff; width: 375px; height: 200px; border: #000 solid 1px; } ...if I want another text area rule to be the same except for one difference, the height should be 80px, do I have to write the rule out again with a new name, incorporating the new height, or is there some nifty way to just change the height in the new rule? Thanks for help with this. j9 On the title of my gallery one of the words has moved to the second row. There is obvious room before the text hits the search box so I'm hoping to have all the text on the same row. This is what I've found for the gallery title CSS: #gallerytitle { padding: 10px 10px 10px 20px; -moz-border-radius-topleft: 10px; -moz-border-radius-topright: 10px; background: #F8F8F8; height:30px; border-bottom: 1px solid #CCC; What would I change there (if that is indeed the part that needs to be changed) to get the desired effect? Here is the site where you can see the gallery title issue. EDIT: I guess I can't link to my site. Hmm. It's kind of hard to describe what my problem is. I appreciate any help i have a link which has some parenthesis within the anchor tags, now what i was wondering was whether i could change the style (colour to be exact) of the parenthesis without adding extra tags into the html. Thanks for any assisstance eg: Order By (DESC) to become Order By ( DESC ) Hi guys...

I am trying to change the style on mouse over of another element. I have a DL with one DT & and one DD. I would like to be able to change the style of the DD on mouse over the entire DL. I'd like to change the class 'background' to 'backgroundOver'.

Hi all, I need to link to a stylesheet and have it apply to the page instead of just opening the css. if thats a bit difficult to understand, lets say for example, for site accessibility, you would have links to 3 types of stylesheets to make the text bigger or smaller... how do you link to the css files without them actually opening the css file? thanks in advance Matty I have an unordered list that I'm making into a navigation menu.

I have a header.inc file and a footer.inc file that is called to each new file that I create. The header.inc file holds all the javascripts as well as calls the css, etc. It also begins the body and the footer.inc file closes the body. In other words in each new file that I create I have a php statement calling the header, and at the bottom of the file another statement that calls the footer. So each new file is really only part of the body as the title and head are found in the header.inc file. What I would like to do is be able to change the background color of the body of a new file if I choose to do so. But obviously because each new file is only part of the body I cannot put a css style in the new file. Is there any way of writing a php statement that I can place in a new file that would allow me to change the background-color of let's say #faunabody for that particular page??. Hope this is clear...thanks alot i have a main page with an iframe.. my iframe contain most of my data.. there are 4 types of css for the user to choose.. i have create 4 css.. 1.css, 2.css, 3.css and 4.css... when they user clicks on the first link, the iframe will load 1.css.. if the user clicks on the 2nd link, the iframe will load 2.css.. what shld i do to attain that? I have been trying various methods to change the color of the scrollbar of an object in my HTML page. However it remains at gray. The HTML code is as follows: <OBJECT NAME="foo" CLASSID="qeroeure" STYLE="scrollbar-base-color:red" CODEBASE="blah" WIDTH="700" HEIGHT="500" BORDER="3">"Cannot load image control." </OBJECT> This does not change the scrollbar color to red. What do I do to change the scrollbar color Hey all, i can't find out anywhere if i can use css to change the style of html menus and buttons...Id just like the menu to look a little different, ie different button and different colour background and text..etc any ideas or help would be appreciated thanks RF I have a button which is drawn using css background-image and 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! I did a web page for a company and it looks fine in ie7 where I tested it.
