CSS - Using :hover To Effect Another Element Which Isn't A Sibling
I've been getting quite confused as to why some CSS wasn't doing what I'd expected it to do.
I have code like this: Code: .tBox { width: 50px; height: 50px; }
.tHeader { opacity: 1 }
.tBox:hover .tHeader { opacity: 0.5 }
I then have my DIVs like this (simplified) Code: <div class="holder"> <div class="section1"> <div class="tBox"> </div> </div> <div class="section2"> <div class="tHeader"></div> </div> </div> So what I was expecting to happen is that when someone hovered over "tBox" then "tHeader" would switch opacity. But it wasn't. And I believe this is because tBox and tHeader aren't in the same parent. I read somewhere something about using a "+" to do some special selector stuff in the CSS but didn't really understand. Can someone please help me with how I can get this to work outside of them sharing their parent. Thanks. Similar TutorialsIm trying to a hover effect with css kinda like the one here http://tabbywrocks.tumblr.com/ on images. i was wondering if anybody could give me a site to some example code that i could look at or something. i looked a bit myself but i couldnt find anything that had exactly what i wanted. Im hoping you don't need JavaScript for it but i think you might Having trouble with using CSS for email link. The problem is that mouse hover produces a black background - this is the intention. However, after clicking on link to open email client, the link (on that page) doesn't have the balck background effect. Other pages in the site are OK - until I click them once. Am I missing a section from the css file below that would give me the same hover effect even after the action of clicking the mailto: link has been done?

Please drop a comment telling me what you think. http://www.majd-gfx.com/tutorials.php?cmd=view&cat=css&id=16 I'm trying to have a hover effect on a link within a <td> tag. In firefox it works fine, but in IE it's not working. I wasn't sure if there's a special property in CSS to get it working. My CSS code is: Quote: .leftblock a{display: block; border-top: 1px solid #ffffff; font-weight: bold; color: #21536A; text-decoration:none; background-color:#CCCCFF; } Quote: .leftblock a:hover{border-top: 1px solid #cccccc; background-color: #DDEEFF; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; } I added display:block to the a:hover class as well to try that to no avail. http://www.sassyproducts.com/hover.php is where you can see what I'm working on. If you hover over anywhere on the first link, Fundraising, it adds the hover effect, but the other ones will only show the hover effect if you hover over the text. This is in IE. In FF, it works properly. Any ideas what I may need to add or change?... Thanks. I'm the processing of redesigning a website that uses hover effect on a button (like button images changes when you put your mouse over it and when you click it, it goes to a different page). Now that works fine if you're on a a desktop/laptop computer. But on a tablet, the hover/onmouseover effect does not work. On a tablet, when clicking the button image, it changes briefly and then immediately goes to a new page. What are methods and techniques where a website can detect if a visitor comes from a tablet or not? Then would it be possible to switch to a tablet CSS version? Or, are there tablet framework (i.e. Modernizer?) that can help with this process? Hello, First, I am new to webcoding so I apologise if what I am asking is too stupid. I am doing a little navigation bar for my blog with the hover effect. My problem is that the hover effect only work when I use {display: block;} but I need it to be inline, because when doing {display:block} it displays vertically. However when I do {display: inline-block;} the list items do show up inline horizontally but they show up only as images, neither does the hover effect or the links work. Second, in IE and in chrome it displays differently. Thank you very much for all the help! Also, here is the code!

That is, in the following code: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"

Is it possible to modify the root UL to have font set to 200% without the child UL also being effected?? Thansk and Regards, Sim085 i have the following css: Code: .table1 {
border-collapse: collapse;
width: 50%;
margin: 24px;

However all tr and td's now getting a hover effect. i tried several methods but I'm to unpracticed with css. Grtzz whitehat Hi there, Need some CSS guru help. If you visit my link: http://www.gabbr.com/js/viewer/cmedata/index1.html and hover over the years (top middles, 2008, 2009, 2010, etc) you will notice an orange bar extending from the top to the bottom of the page. I am trying to get the same effect on the left (month and day) but am unable to do so. The problem I am having is that I cannot get the orange hover bar to extend off the left of the screen for either #dayleft or for #monthleft. It extends all the way to the right margin of the screen but not the left. The problem is the margin-left: 15px; in #monthleft and margin-left: 80px; in #dayleft. But I cannot get rid of these since I require them for the letter spacing. Any advice? I have a couple of divs that slide out from the side of the browser window when the user hovers over a button which is sticking out from that div. This is easily accomplished in every browser except for IE. The problem is that there is other elements inside this div and when the mouse hovers over these other elements the slide out div goes back off the screen, because it thinks the mouse is no longer over the div when in fact it is. Has anyone ever ran into a problem like this and know how to fix it. I know how to do this using Javascript, but I'm not sure if it can be done using CSS itself. I have a bunch if div tags and some anchor tags on my page. By default, the div tags are hidden, and when I mouseover an anchor, I would like a specific div to be displayed. Again, I can do this in Javascript, but would like to see if there is a CSS-only approach to this. Example HTML: Code: <div id="div1">Option1</div> <div id="div2">Option 2</div> <div id="div3">Option 3</div> <a id="link1" href="somepage.html"></a> <a id="link2" href="someotherpage.html"></a> <a id="link3" href="someotherpageentirely.html"></a> Example CSS: Code:
div#div1 div#div2 div#div3 {
display:none;
width:50px;
height:50px;
background-image: url(divimage.png);
}
a#link1 a#link2 a#link3 {
display:block;
width:100px;
height:100px;
background-image: url(myimage.png);
}
a#link1:hover a#link2:hover a#link3:hover
{
display:block;
width:120px;
height:120px;
background-image: url(myotherimage.png);
}
So in this instance, when one of the anchor tags is hovered over, I would like to change the associated (link1 -> div1, link2 -> div2, link3 -> div3) div CSS to change to be something like this: Code:
div#div1
{
display:block;
}
I realize I've generalized these CSS definitions and on my actual page I have individual CSS definitions for each anchor and div separately as they all differ slightly. Is there a way to do this using straight CSS or am I bound to Javascript in order to do this? Thanks! - skubik i know that IE doesnt support the :hover being added to anything but links, is this the same with :active? was just wondering whether i could have a style change when the user clicks on a form button using the sibling selector like this Code: p, h3
{
margin-bottom: 1em;
}
p + h3
{
margin-top: 2em;
}
should produce output like this (taking mrgin collapsing into consideration) Code: first h3 at top of page paragraph h3 with 2em gap to preceding paragraph paragraph secondary paragraph with 1em gap to preceding paragraph h3 etc but alas, the sibling selector does not work in IE6! so how do i do it otherwise, whilst retaining simple markup? Hi everyone. I have a div with text and directly after that I have an image. Since a DIV is a block level element, it causes the image to wrap to the next line. Is there some way I can prevent it from doing so? Thanks for any help or suggestions. I am trying to create something similar to tooltips and having a problem. I know that the browsers support tooltips with the title attribute but I'm looking to do something different. Also, I know that IE has bugs with hovering on non-anchor tags but I'm trying to make this work in a standards-compliant browser (I'm not using IE). I've tried the code given by SantaKlauss and it worked fine. But why doesn't this work (a simple example to illustrate the problem)? Code:
<style type="text/css">
.test:hover + div
{
background-color: red;
}
</style>
<img class='test' src='test.gif' />
<div>here is some text</div>
If I remove the :hover pseudo-class declaration like this: Code:
.test + div
{
background-color: red;
}
It correctly sets the background color on the div following the image. So why doesn't the first example work with the hover pseudo-class?? Thanks in advance, Jeremiah Hi, So, there's the adjacent child selector element + element, but I was wondering if there was something that did the reverse of that selector. For example, let's say I have this: Code:
<div id="menu">
<div class="option">1</div
<div class="option">2</div>
<div class="option">3</div>
<div class="option">4</div>
</div>
I know I can use the element + element selector to quickly style every option div but the first, but is there some selector to quickly style every option element but the last. Thanks. --Surgery Hi, My page has 3 elements: one at the top(header banner), one in the middle (a middle content area) and one at the bottom (footer banner). Now I want those positions to remain intact regardless of the number of lines output in the middle element. The content is going to be determined at runtime by a server-side routine so I don't want to use a fixed positioning for the footer banner. I want it to be displayed at the bottom - after the middle content is displayed. And I want the middle content to be visible in the page i.e. I don't want a scroll area within the page. I have tried various approaches and read up on positioning but so far have not been able to do it using css. Any help is much appreciated. Jim Well I managed to find a partial solution by adding "clear" to the "statusDiv" like so: Code:
.statusDiv {
clear: both
background-image: url(../png/disclosure_triangles/blue_block.png);
height: 20px;
margin-bottom: 1px;
}
This kicks sibling divs onto their own line (which is what I wanted) but the spacing between divs is 2 pixels and I can't seem to find any combination of padding, margins etc to get the spacing down to one pixel. Does anyone know of a way to control the inter-div spacing when "clear" is defined? Thanks Ken --------------------------------------------------------------- Original post --------------------------------------------------------------- I'm trying to make a few divs to create the same basic functionality as an outline (with disclosure triangles etc...) and am having alignment problems. The first row renders perfectly but the text of subsequent rows overlaps the text of first row. Here's the html: Code: <div id="contentBlock" class="bodyText"> <div class='statusDiv'> <div class='disclosureCollapsed'></div> <div class="disclosureDivLabel">New</div> </div> <div class='statusDiv'> <div class='disclosureCollapsed'></div> <div class="disclosureDivLabel">Open</div> </div> </div> And here's the CSS: Code:
#contentBlock {
position: absolute;
top: 130px;
left: 200px;
height: 101%; /* Hack to force vertical scroll bars */
right: 280px;
min-width: 400px;
visibility: visible;
display: block;
}
.statusDiv {
clear: both
background-image: url(../png/disclosure_triangles/blue_block.png);
height: 20px;
margin-bottom: 1px;
}
.disclosureCollapsed {
background-image: url(../png/disclosure_triangles/blue_collapsed_wide.png);
display: block;
text-align: right;
/*position: absolute;*/
float: left;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
width: 18px;
height: 20px;
}
.disclosureCollapsed:hover {
cursor: pointer;
}
How would I make the text in each subsequent row (statusDiv) line up? Thanks for any help Ken I have an navigation menu that I am building as an unordered list. What I have is an image rollover that appears at the bottom of the navigation menu when the cursor hovers over one of the first level links by using a span within the link that has its display set to none, and then set to absolute positioned directly below the navigation menu on a:hover. Here is an example: Code:
<ul>
<li>
<a href="link1.html" id="link1">Link<span></span></a>
</li>
</ul>
.link a { some link height }
.link a span { display: none; }
.link a:hover span {
position: abolute;
top: (some link height * the number of links);
background-image: (some image url)
width: (image width)
height: (image height)
}
Appearance: ------ Link1 Link2 Link3 Link4 ------- ------- Rollover Image to appear here ------- The problem that I have is that since the rollover image is positioned absolutely, if the size of the list of links changes (IE with sub-links in the list) it slides under or over where I have the rollover image placed. IE ------ Link1 sublink1 sublink2 Link2 Link3 Link4 ------- will break my scheme. Is there a way to get the span within the link to show up relative to the bottom of the <ul> element, or at the bottom of an element that contains the whole shebang? If I cant get this to work, I'm going to be forced to adopt the existing tables/javascript based template for our site, and I'd hate hate hate to do that. thanks. I have a drop down menu located at http://www.fieldspianos.com/new/index.php If you hover over the menu items they turn black and white when you are right on the text but not if you are in the area surrounding it which is what I also need to occur. You can view the source on the page for the html but I will include the css below. This is the basic layout of the menu: Code:
<ul>
<li>About Us</li>
<ul>
<li><a href="#">Locations</a></li>
etc..etc..etc.. Here is the css: Code:
/*Begin Content of drop down menu*/
a {
outline:none;
}
* html div#dropdownmenu ul {
float: left;
}
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}

border-right: 1px solid #000;
padding: 3px;
}
div#dropdownmenu ul li ul li:first-child {
border-top: 1px solid #000;
}
div#dropdownmenu ul li ul li:hover {
color: #FFFFFF;
background-color: #000000;
}
div#dropdownmenu ul li ul li a {
color: #660000;
text-decoration:none;
outline: none;
}
div#dropdownmenu ul li ul li a:hover {
color: #FFFFFF;
background-color: #000000;
text-decoration:none;
outline: none;
}
div#dropdownmenu ul li:hover ul, div#dropdownmenu ul li ul:hover {
display: block;
}
Any help is greatly appreciated, this seems like it would be a simple fix but I can't figure it out. Maybe I am overlooking some small detail. Thanks! |
