CSS - Underline Diff Color Than Link
What is the best practice for giving an <a> a different color than the underline? Background image? <a><span></span></a>? Something else?
Similar TutorialsDoes anyone know if/how I can get a CSS script for link classes that would only change the colour of the underline like the one at the top of Altavista's translate page??

PS. no Javascript code needed, is their an alternative in css? Hello is there a way to make it so hyperlinks are not decorated as the default blue?

I have bunch of links on the page. Now it possible that links could be in different colors and also visted and hover links could be different. When I put class .footer_text2 , it over writes everything that I hade before and all my links get style accorrding to footer_text Code: <style> .class1, .class1 a { color: blue; } .class2, .class2 a { color: green; } </style> <div class="class1"> <a href="moo.html">This link shows up as blue</a> <a href="moo2.html" class="class2">This link shows up as blue even though it should be green.</a> </div> Anyone know how to get around this without resorting to applying classes to every <a> tag.. ?

I would like to set different link colors inside table data: #BottomTable TD A:link { color: #CCCCCC } ... but this doesnt work! Any ideas, please? I have three "buttons" that are essentially <div> elements on a page made to look like a button. I would like to make the background color change for the button on the "hover" state, but for some reason the only part of the background that changes on the hover state is the area only behind the text. Here's my code. I'd like the whole background area to change, anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Code: .prioritycontainer { width: auto; float: left; display: inline; margin: 0px 0px; padding: 10px 0px; } .prioritybutton { float: left; width: 150px; height: auto; display: inline; margin: 0px 20px 0px 0px; padding: 3px 3px 3px 3px; background-color: #978047; border: solid 1px #CCBC77; color: #fff; font-weight: bold; text-align: center; vertical-align: middle; } .prioritybutton a:link { color: #fff; text-decoration: none; } .prioritybutton a:visited { color: #fff; text-decoration: none; } .prioritybutton a:hover { color: #fff; background-color: #A19058; text-decoration: none; } .prioritybutton a:active { color: #fff; background-color: #A19058; text-decoration: none; } Markup on .html page is as follows: Code: <div class="prioritycontainer"> <div class="prioritybutton"><a href="one.htm">One</a></div> <div class="prioritybutton"><a href="two.htm">Two</a></div> <div class="prioritybutton"><a href="three.htm">Three</a></div> </div> Any help would be very helpful. Thanks, Brian how do you define the the color of a hyperlink before it has been clicked and after it has been clicked? Thanks. The problem: a link appears in the color i have set in IE, but in other (probably the default one) color in FireFox the explanation of the situation: attachment 1 that's how it looks in FireFox attachment 2 that's how it looks in IE, and the way it should look! cause that's the color i have set in the css file here is the code from the css file Code: A { color: #D9E0EF; text-decoration: underline; } A:HOVER { color: #D9E0EF; text-decoration: none; } here is the code around the link from the screenshots Code: <p align="center"><b><font size="7"><a href="index.php?p=join/index">JOIN</a></font></b></p> where may be the problem which doesn't allow to FireFox to see that there is set color for the links? Hi there, I have an image rollover css script, but it will not understand a:active so is there a way I can use an inline a:active attribute? Many thanks! Hi all, below is the code i have in my css, but from some reason my website is showing blue instead of yellow for links can you tell my why this is happening ffff00 is suppose to be yellow, at least that is what Expression web 2 shows. /* Sets the style for unvisited links. */ a, a:link { color: #FFFF00; text-decoration: underline; font-weight: bold; } Do to forum rules i can't post my url, so i know it will be difficult to troubleshoot. but thanks, for all the help you can give me. Bustersnm I'm trying to create a hover effect that changes the background color behind a link, but instead of ending with the text, the color change extends to the width of the div. It's hard to explain, so here's an example: checkout the sidebar at pastemagazine.com. I've tried dissecting their source code, but they have about 5 different stylesheets and it's really hard to follow. As far as I can tell, this is what makes the hover effect and I just can't figure out how they make the background color change extend beyond the text. I have my links in a ul just as they do and they don't seem to be doing anything else special. Code: #sect1 ul.stories a:hover{ background-color:#d9f7ff; color: #71808F; } Thanks! cae I have make css from page property and type a sample text and covert it into <a> tag as css <a> tag should come in green color bt it shows in purple color and i dont why please suggest asap as required for my institute. thanks in advance link is attached please check the css also Code: http://practice.zymichost.com/ |
