CSS - Hover Issues
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 Similar TutorialsHey...this may possibly be a dumb question; I'm still pretty much a complete n00b at HTML/CSS and this is only the second site I've really tried to code. I haven't tried to deal with cross-browser compatibility in IE yet so I'm sure it looks completely whack there, but I've been surprised by issues I've been having between FF, Safari, and Opera -- it was my understanding that those three browsers read things pretty much the same. Basically, the site has a bunch of horizontal dropdown menus (uls with li:hover functions). Here's the relevant code: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head><title>Star Trek: Andromeda</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://www.trekandromeda.com/home.css" /> </head> <body> <!-- Menu --> <div id="bg"> <div id="home"><ul id="menu"><li><a href="http://www.trekandromeda.com/home.html"><i><img src="http://www.trekandromeda.com/images/menubutton.png"></i></a> <ul class="marginone"> <li><a href="http://www.trekandromeda.com/home.html">Site Home</a></li> <li><a href="http://forums.sb254.com/index.php?f=686">STA Forums</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.sb254.com/">FSF Home</a></li> </ul></li></ul></div> <div id="news"><ul id="menu"><li><a href="#"><i><img src="http://www.trekandromeda.com/images/menubutton.png"></i></a> <ul class="marginone"> <li><a href="http://www.trekandromeda.com/news.html">Recent News</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.trekandromeda.com/awards.html">Game Awards</a></li> </ul></li></ul></div> <div id="info"><ul id="menu"><li><a href="#"><i><img src="http://www.trekandromeda.com/images/menubutton2.png"></i></a> <ul class="margintwo"> <li><a href="http://www.trekandromeda.com/chat.html">Chat Room</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.trekandromeda.com/odysseyplot.html">STA Plot</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.trekandromeda.com/odysseycrew.html">STA Crew</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.trekandromeda.com/staff.html">STA Staff</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.trekandromeda.com/join.html">Join</a></li> </ul></li></ul></div> <div id="tech"><ul id="menu"><li><a href="#"><i><img src="http://www.trekandromeda.com/images/menubutton.png"></i></a> <ul class="marginone"> <li><a href="http://www.trekandromeda.com/ships.html">Ships</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.trekandromeda.com/equipment.html">Fleet Tech</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.trekandromeda.com/science.html">Science Docs</a></li> </ul></li></ul></div> <div id="andromeda"><ul id="menu"><li><a href="#"><i><img src="http://www.trekandromeda.com/Temp/menubutton2.png"></i></a> <ul class="marginthree"> <li><a href="http://www.trekandromeda.com/races.html">Xenobiology</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.trekandromeda.com/maps.html">Stellar Cartography</a></li> </ul></li></ul></div> </div> </body></html> And the CSS: Code:

In Firefox (and in Opera, although the placement is a little funky) the dropdown menus have an li:hover effect which changes the color of the one which is being hovered over. However, this is not working in Safari and I'm not entirely sure why. Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do to fix this? Thanks! I've having an issue with Firefox and my navbar. It's image based I can't find a way to exclude it from the hover state of a:hover { border-bottom:1px dashed #666;} When you hover over the links on the navbar, it shifts the page a bit and then back to normal when you leave the hover state. http://www.graphics-tech.com/concept There is the link for example. Thanks Hi all, I'm having some trouble with my code for a CSS nav bar. I'm all new to this so am not sure where to start. At present my nav bar is working fine. The only problem I am having is when one hovers over a new drop down item the parent doesn't change back to the non hovered state, it remains showing background image for the hover. Here is my test page... http://www.seattleunderground.co.uk/testmenu.html and here is the CSS code... Code: .menu{
border:none;
border:0px;
margin:0px;
padding:0px;
font: 100% "Marker Felt", "Comic Sans", sans-serif;
font-size:15px;

Please can some kind soul check this out and tell me where I need to add what lines to have the parents change back to BKGButtonUp.png. I want each item to turn white as I go through them. Thanks v.much. P.s. Is it possible to use Marker Felt Wide as the font? At the mo the writing is quite small, and changing font size shifts everything. I used Marker Felt Wide on the main site, but created my nav menu using Flash at first. Flash is causing some issues however so I must change to CSS to fix things. www.seattleunderground.co.uk Best regards, Ash 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 {

background-color: #000000;

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 cannot figure this out. I've tried adding clear: both in several places, I've tried overflow: hidden and I've tried cursing. Nothing works! How can this be fixed so that in IE6 the divs are not staggered vertically?? Code: <div style="height: 38px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; width: 140px;"> <div style="float: left; height: 38px; width: 38px;"><img style="border: 1px solid #444444; vertical-align: middle" src="http://www.diversifieddesigns.com/GRAPHICS/Spacer.gif" alt="" width="38" height="38" border="0"></div> <div style="float: right; height: 38px; width: 102px;">copy</a><br>copy</a></div> </div> <div style="height: 38px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; width: 140px;"> <div style="float: left; height: 38px; width: 38px;"><img style="border: 1px solid #444444; vertical-align: middle" src="http://www.diversifieddesigns.com/GRAPHICS/Spacer.gif" alt="" width="38" height="19" border="0"></div> <div style="float: right; height: 38px; width: 102px;"><img style="border: 1px solid #444444; vertical-align: middle" src="http://www.diversifieddesigns.com/GRAPHICS/Spacer.gif" alt="" width="38" height="8" border="0"></div> </div> Hey, I came across this forum and hopefully somebody can help me. Here is my website: http://www.jmuelectricmotorcycle.tk When the page is in firefox, If you page zoom out, the navbar goes under the content instead of staying on the right. I think it has something to do with padding and the sidebar not having enough room so it drops down. When I set the content to 1005 instead of 1000, it works, but there's a giant 5 pixel gap between my side bar and my content container. Also, does anybody know how to style called data from ssi.php in SMF forums? I want my login boxes to look like my main page. Thanks. Here is my css: Code:

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 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 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 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. 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> 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. 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? 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;

}
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 that td:hover isn't supported by all browsers but it is displaying some quirky behavior: Code:

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. 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;

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 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 |
