CSS - Css Hover Explanation
Hi there,
Just playing around with some CSS menu tricks when I came accross this piece of CSS which I don't understand. Code:
#nav li:hover ul ul,
#nav li:hover ul ul ul,
#nav li:hover ul ul ul ul{
display: none;
}
#nav li:hover ul,
#nav li li:hover ul,
#nav li li li:hover ul,
#nav li li li li:hover ul{
display: block;
}
I know that it is being used to display and hide a popup menu, on mouse over. How is this read though? Thanks. Similar TutorialsWhat I don't understand about the following code is why the body background color is showing inbetween the divs that mark the header, content, and footer. I want no separation between the divs (margin 0, or so i thought). Can someone explain what's going on? Help very much appreciated. <html> <head> <style> body { background-color: black; } #header { background-color: red; margin: 0; } #content { margin:0; background-color: #ffffff; } #footer { margin: 0; background-color: red; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="header"> <h3>Header</h3> </div> <div id="content"> <p>Content</p> </div> <div id="footer"> <h3>Footer</h3> </div> </body> </html> Hello I would like to know the difference between: *name .name #name thanks Hi, I have been trying to get up to speed on the workings of css positioning and have hit a stumbling block very early on. I would like to know what 'normal' means when the w3schools docs say that: (I'd provide a link but this site forbids me to do so) 'A relative positioned element is positioned relative to its normal position.' Could anyone provide a definition or explanation? I'm battling to figure out the basics here. Thanks Jim Hi, i need a simple, clear and easy to understand explanation of the parameters given to the CSS 'clip' property. i understand what the clip property does in essence - basically clips a rectangle from the given image - but i do not understand how the points given to the rect() function work - i cannot visualise it. My book does not describe it very well and the websites i have visited dont either. Therefore id be grateful if someone could give me a simple explanation 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;
}
div#dropdownmenu {
float: left;
background-color: #C8C6C6;
font-size:11px;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
div#dropdownmenu ul li {
list-style-type: none;
float: left;
background-color: #000000;
position: relative;
}
div#dropdownmenu ul li:hover {
list-style-type: none;
background-color: #000000;
}
/*Hides drop downs when not overed over and reveals them when they are hovered over.*/
body div#dropdownmenu ul li ul {
display: none;
}
body div#dropdownmenu ul li:hover ul {
display: block;
}
div#dropdownmenu ul li ul {
margin: 0;
width: 13em;
position: absolute;
left: -1px;
}
div#dropdownmenu ul li ul li {
width: 100%;
background-color:#bdb35e;
color: #660000;
border-bottom: 1px solid #000;
border-left: 1px solid #000;
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! I know that td:hover isn't supported by all browsers but it is displaying some quirky behavior: Code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>

border-spacing: 0;
border-collapse: collapse; } /* end #level0 table */

border-top: 1px solid #f1f1f1;
border-bottom: 1px solid #f1f1f1;

border-left: 0; } /* end #level0 #rotating_image */
</style>

When I hover over the first cell, the top and bottom borders turns black but not the left, and all the right borders disappear. When I hover over the other cells, only the bottom border turns black. What I am trying to accomplish is when a table cell is moused over, the top, bottom, and left border of that cell turns from gray to black and the right border which is currently black turns white. Hi guys, Was wondering if you could tell me where I'm going wrong with this. Basically I have used the class "WhiteBoldLinks" on some text BUT when the mouse goes over the link I cant get the underline and text colour to work which is assigned to the class "#WhiteBoldLinks a:hover" . How do I use this? Or have I coded it wrong? PHP Code: .WhiteBoldLinks { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: bold; color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: none; } #WhiteBoldLinks a:hover { text-decoration: underline; color: #FF0000; } I have two images, A and B. When I hover over image A, B appears over A, where B is at 25% opacity. If I wanted to make B appear after A, I would use this: Code: .imageA:hover:after{
content: url("images/imageB.jpg");
}
or before.. Code: .imageA:hover:before{
content: url("images/imageB.jpg");
}
How do I make B appear on top of A or underneath it? Thanks, Andy I have the following css Code: #navigation li {
display: inline;
background: url(Images/greenbg.gif) repeat-x center top;
text-align: center;
padding: 0;
margin-right: 4px;
float: left;
}
for the following html Code: <div id="navigation"> <ul> <li><a href=""><span>Menu1</span></a></li> <li><a href=""><span>Menu2</span></a></li> <li><a href=""><span>Menu3</span></a></li> <li><a href=""><span>Menu4</span></a></li> <li><a href=""><span>Menu5</span></a></li> </ul> </div> <br style="clear: both" /> and I can't figure out how to get the background to change when I hover. Anyone have any ideas? I tried this to no avail Code: #navigation a:hover li {
display: inline;
background: url(Images/greenbghover.gif) repeat-x center top;
text-align: center;
padding: 0;
margin-right: 4px;
float: left;
}
Hi, I have found a nice feature on this website; click here When you mouse over grey - orange images another div comes out. What this is called? Is there any example code that I can work on? Thanks. i have 2 divs div1 and div2 there is an image in div2 and there is a link in div1, by default the image in div2 is hidden and i have used #div2 img{ visibility: hidden; // also i tried display: none; } when i move the mouse over the link in div1 i want the image in div2 to appear following is my code #div1 a:hover #div2 img1{ visibility: hidden; or display: none; } the image in div2 is not appearing without using javascript or jquery can this simple effect be done by using css code can someone tell me the correct syntax to show the image please advice. thanks Hello: I would like to have a big font size of title on my web site for search engine optimuzation purpose, I wrap the title with a H1, then I define H1 in css as FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-SIZE: 34px; COLOR: #000000; in other place I also have A:hover {COLOR: #6460AD; TEXT-DECORATION: underline; the title I put in is a hyper link, so when the mouse hovers on the title, the title shown as underlined, I want it to be TEXT-DECORATION: none I don't know the syntax in H1 definetion to disable the underline I want to change the color of an <a> when a list element is hovered over, using CSS. Is this possible? Or do I need to resort to Javascript? Code:
<style>
a { color: red; }
#menu ul li:hover { background: red; color: white; }
</style>
<div id="menu">
<ul>
<li><a href="home.html">Home</li>
</ul>
I can do a change to: #menu ul li:hover, #menu ul a:hover { background: red; color: white; } but the anchor won't change color on the li:hover, so it looks red on red. I don't know is it done before or not but i made it ,, i got rid of the onmouseover:crab tags but i think if you announce it as harmless I have use it again because I'll to write three times more code to get what i want with that hover thing. both functional in ie and ff css Code: .ortadiv:link {background-color:#EFEFEF;}
* html .ortadiv {background-color:#EFEFEF;} /*hack*/
.ortadiv:hover {background-color:white; cursor:default}
html -(my code looks like that) Code: <a class="ortadiv" href="#"><span><h5></h5></span></a> (it doesn't validates !) my main concern is about my headers , because when i use my css-hack-hover they becomes links with "#" . Is it affects search-engine things ? edit: I decided to not to use it because of my validating concerns http://www.knowledge2work.com/testing/test.htm is a link to a menu that I have created. Essentially what I want to happen is that the mouseover on the submenu changes the background color and the text color as well. I have done this using td:hover and ids and it works just fine in Firefox but not at all in IE. Why is this? hey there i was wondering why on hover the .indexThumbDiv dosnt display as a block in IE6 but in IE7 and firefox it does. head: PHP Code: .indexThumbDiv{display:none;} a.indexThumbA:hover .indexThumbDiv{display:block;} body: PHP Code: <a class="indexThumbA" href="link"> span class="indexThumbDiv"></span> <img src="link" width="120" height="120" border="0" style="vertical-align:bottom"/> </a> Thanks for taking the time to read my question. This works in FF but not IE6. What do I need to change to make it work I have borders around my images which are links and I want the border color to change on hover HTML Code: <a href="LisaClarkDesigns_About.htm"><img class="ImgNav" src="images/AboutNav.gif" alt="Click here to navigate to the About Lisa Clark Designs page." /></a> CSS for container Code:
img.ImgNav {
border: 1px solid #999999;
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px 10px 0px 10px;
width: 52px;
}
CSS for hover Code: <a href="LisaClarkDesigns_About.htm"><img class="ImgNav" src="images/AboutNav.gif" alt="Click here to navigate to the About Lisa Clark Designs page." /></a> <a href="LisaClarkDesigns_Portfolio.htm"><img class="ImgNav" src="images/PortfolioNav.gif" alt="Click here to navigate to the Lisa Clark Designs Portfolio page." /></a> <a href="LisaClarkDesigns_Fees.htm"><img class="ImgNav" src="images/FeesNav.gif" alt="Click here to navigate to the Lisa Clark Designs Fees page." /></a> <a href="LisaClarkDesigns_Contact.htm"><img class="ImgNav" src="images/AboutNav.gif" alt="Click here to navigate to the Lisa Clark Designs Contact page." /></a> Thanks, Brad I know this has been discussed loads. And I have read a tonne of articles telling people it cannot be done in pure CSS. But I wanted a little clarification. I want a hover: over a <tr>. Now Im not fussed if it doesn't work in IE5/6 even 7 (although obviously it would be nice!) its a little feature to help users. My app is internal, so as long as the CSS doesn't break the page, then IE users just wont get the hover, while others will. This is what I have: .result_lines{ background-color:#EAEAEA; } .result_lines tr:hover{ background-color:#666666; color:#FFFFFF; } Now, having not done this, I wasn't even sure if the order of my syntax was correct, so a little direction would be perfect. Note: I don't want to use JS. Hi there, I would like for the background of a text link to change colour when the mouse hovers over the text... no problem a:hover {background:#72b83c} However I would like to STOP the background of an image doing the same thing.... this I am having trouble with. I've tried a:hover img {background:none} a:hover img {background:none!important} But it doesn't seem to work (the background still changes behind the image (showing the colour around the left and bottom of the image). Can anyone offer any suggestions? Paul Hello All, Just thought I'd pass along the following tip. I wanted to make the links on a web page stand out by changing the underlining and changing the text and the background color. However, by using the standard CSS coding of "a:hover {...}" it also changed the text and background color for any other <a> tags on the web page (i.e., <a name>, <a coord>, etc.). Using the attribute selector of a[href]:hover such as the following code works in Firefox and Safari; but it does not work in IE. Code: a[href]:hover {
color: #004040;
text-decoration: underline;
background: #C0FFFF;
}
However, the coding below works in IE, Safari and FF. Code: a:hover
{
color: #004040;
text-decoration: underline;
background: #C0FFFF;
}
a[name]:hover
{
text-decoration: inherit;
color: inherit;
background: inherit;
}
This coding works as the second style reverts the hovered <a name> tags to their default state. Thanks. Tom Cosmas |
