CSS - Problems With A:links
I have a really weird problem with links and CSS. I have develop a design that can stretch in order to make room for content. Then i pull some text, and, at the bottom, there is a footer nav bar. Now, if the content i put on the page is not too long (i mean, the main content area is not stretching itself below the viewable area of the screen), then the links work as a charm, but, as soon as you put some more content, then the links stop working. I would be glad to share the source code with anyone (i am not posting it here to avoid boring), but you can take a first glimpse at http://partyingout.net/dev_zone/ I have tested it on almost any mac os x and suse linux browser and the glitch is there (in some cases, like OmniWeb. the links are not working at all). I know it is something i have done wrong, but i can spot it, and, i googling it for most than two days (and once again, i know it is me not knowing how to search).
Can someone give me a hand? Best regards.

Can someone please tell me why theh3 tag in the center column is underlined? I only want this heading to be underlined when someone hovers over it. C Hi All, I've created the below style sheet for links on my site, but MS IE won't display the classes properly! In the first class "navlink" it displays ok except for the last cell in a table of 5 columns where no styling is applied! The second class "sidelink" is used to style side navigation links within div tags on a page, but the links appear as hyperlinks with no styling except color and the background highlight on hover does not expand to 100% of the containing div! only around the text. link to page: Click here Does anyone know what's up with this? as it all displays fine in Mozilla but not Ms IE. Thanks PHP Addict Code: A.sidenav:LINK { color:#FFFFFF; font-variant: small-caps; font-size: 85%; text-decoration: none; display: block; width: 100%; height: 100%; } A.sidenav:VISITED { color: #FFFFFF; } A.sidenav:HOVER { color: #FFF6BF; background-color:#00158C; text-decoration: none; } A.sidenav:ACTIVE { color: #FFF6BF; } Simple question, but i'm trying to create a decent sized space in between my links, and make them white. I can make my links white, but can't seem to change the space inbetween them.

The header/banner looks fine in Firefox. In IE7 and Opera, the H2 subtitle is left aligned over the globe image. In IE6 content jumps outside of container. Anyone know why there is a shift, and what I can do about it?

Hi, If I have the following CSS: body { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; } a:link, a:visited { color: #F36706; text-decoration: none; } a:hover, a:active { color: #F36706; text-decoration: underline overline; } #siteDimention { width: 758px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding: 0px; } How come the links in my page aren't changing from the normal blue/purple ones? I am not sure if these links count as navigation or not, so not sure if I should be using the UL element for semantic correctness? <div id="footer_bottom" class="bold"> <a href="sitemap.php" title="Sitemap">Sitemap</a> | <a href="accessibility.php" title="Accessibility Options">Accessibility Options</a> | <a href="http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=referer;verbose=1" rel="external" title="Validate XHTML">XHTML Valid</a> | <a href="http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/check/referer" rel="external" title="Validate CSS formatting">CSS Valid</a> </div> Hi, I have CSS document like so: Code: div.menu A:link { definitions } div.menu A:visited { definitions } div.menu A:active { definitions } div.menu A:hover { definitions } And in my HTML document Code: <div class="menu"> Links are then put in here </div> But only the first Link effect works, how come? I tried Google, got few results I were looking for, I know that the Link effects has to be in certain order, and in these websites I found they were in different order tried both but no luck Thanks alot! I have what seemed to be a simple idea but is turning out to bother me. In my style sheet i want to put a base url followed by a user id Link looks like this Code: http://mywebsite.com/this_folder/remote/html_server.php?xw_controller=hitlist&xw_action=set&target_id= Now in my html i have this Code: <table><tr><td >My name<td >Job position<td >606959150</tr> The last td that has the number in it i want to add to the end of the url posted above i cannot figure our what to put in the css to use as the main link and i want to add another td behind the last one with the number in it with the entirelink which should look like this Code: <a target="_blank" href="http://mywebsite.com/this_folder/remote/html_server.php?xw_controller=hitlist&xw_action=set&target_id=606959150">Link</a> I have to use this for multiple people each one using a unique ID# is there a simple way to do this, the reasoning behind this is that the main link changes once every few months, instead of changing all links i would like to be able to just change the one in the css file and be done with it. i hope i am explaining it correctly. Thanks ahead of time for any help u can provide I want to have a hover effect on the links of my page. I'm using an attached stylesheet to define it. Here is the section defining the links: Code: a:link { color: red; text-decoration: none; } a:hover { color: blue; text-decoration: underline; } a:visited { color: red; text-decoration: none; } a:active { color: red; text-decoration: underline; } Normal links appear red and is not underlined. When the cursor hovers over a normal link, it appears blue and is underlined. However, visited links do not 'behave' as normal links. They appear red and are not underlined. When hovered over, they do not change color or get underlined. I want visited links to act the same. They only way I could get them to act the same was to do the following: Code: a.general:link { color: red; text-decoration: none; } a.general:visited { color: red; } a.general:hover { color: blue; text-decoration: underline; } a.general:active { color: red; text-decoration: underline; } This is the only rules IE will obey. But every link need to be defined as instances of class "general". Is there a better way of handling this? I have set up a CSS file for a website I am building, however, when I click on the links which work correctly (at first) it goes to the desired place, if I go "back" the link turns to a larger italic font. Look here for example. http://www.burrellprolabs.com/newsite.htm if you click on one of the body copy links under "latestNEWS" then go back you will see what I mean. here is my css style for that particular part: .bodycopy { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; color: #575757; text-decoration: none; line-height: 13px; } .bodycopy a:link { color: #BF0000; text-decoration: none; } .bodycopy a:active { color: #BF0000; text-decoration: none; } .bodycopy a:visited { color: #BF0000; text-decoration: none; } .bodycopy a:hover { color: #969696; text-decoration: underline; question is about CSS and links. I can get underline effect, background change, etc by using .a but i need to have more than one sort of link in my page, e.g. menu links cannot have the same effect as links in the main text. How do i set up more than two link effects? I'm currently working on a website for college, but I've run into an issue I can't work out. I can't seem to get rid of the default purple box that appears around my links. The HTML: Code: <div id="homelink"><a href="index.html"></a></div> The CSS: Code: #homelink{ position:absolute; width:53px; height:17px; margin-top:25px; margin-left:70px; z-index:10; } #homelink a{ display:block; background-image:url(images/links/home.png); background-repeat:no-repeat; width:53px; height:17px; } #homelink a:hover{ display:block; background-image:url(images/links/homehover.png); width:53px; height:17px; } As you can see, I use a background image for the div and no text for the link. Clicking the background image works fine and takes me to the homepage, however I get the default visited and active link border around it. Is there any way to solve this so that no border appears? I was messing around with <ul><li> type nav links, and had some issues with the bullet images I made were too large, so I made it as a background image for the <li> but <li> backgrounds didn't seem to work so well on IE. My question is this, why does everyone use <ul><li> to make their nav links when you can use less code just using <a>'s within a <div>? Here's my code example (bullet.jpg not included, it's just a 30px square I made in photoshop) Code: <html> <head> <style type="text/css"> #links li { text-indent:40px; list-style-type:none; } #links a { display:block; line-height:30px; height:30px; width:150px; background:#EEE url('bullet.jpg') no-repeat; } #links a:hover { background:#FFF url('bullet.jpg') no-repeat; } #links2 a { text-indent:40px; display:block; line-height:30px; height:30px; width:150px; background:#EEE url('bullet.jpg') no-repeat; } #links2 a:hover { background:#FFF url('bullet.jpg') no-repeat; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="links"> <ul> <li><a href="#">links</a></li> <li><a href="#">link 2</a></li> <li><a href="#">three</a></li> </ul> </div> <div id="links2"> <a href="#">links</a> <a href="#">link 2</a> <a href="#">three</a> </div> </div> </body> </html> Hi, Can anyone see why the main navigation links aren't working on IE5 on a Mac he <link removed>? I've checked in Mac Safari, Win IE and Win Mozilla and they're fine. On Mac5.2 however, they simply don't do anything - no hover effect or active link at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks... Excuse me but i am a little thick on this one: How do I create different colored link style for say a: 1. navigation bar 2. footer bar 3. main body Does making classes make sense in this situation doug Can some explain (briefly) how one goes about specifying CSS styles for different link areas in a page. for example, I want navigation links to have a different set of "rules" than footer links. ted On this site, the links do not work and I don't know why. The links should be a different color and when you hover over them they should change colors, but again, they do not. You can't even click on them and I can't figure out why. Any help is appreciated.
