CSS - A:hover On Images Not Working Ie
why won't this work on internet explorer a:hover img { }.
This is exactly what i'm using, it works on firefox but doesn't work on IE. You can see it in action here. Code: a:hover img { border: 2px solid #fff; } Similar TutorialsA few people seem to have had the problem of the a:hover not working right in ie when applied to images. Mine is just applied to a standard bit of text. In my menu (CSS only, no javascript) the descriptions are "display:none" in the initial "a" state and then "display:block" in the a:hover state. Works in Firefox, but not ie. Any ideas? My page is at www.prioritypie.f2s.com/KSA/about.htm You can see the CSS by clicking on the first link on the left hand side of the page. Thanks to anyone who can take away the pain and swearing of the last couple of hours. 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! Hi, currently the css is set up to display a grey box behind whatever is rolled over...i would like to make it so that doesn't apply to images, kinda looks wonky. Here's the site, you'll see what i'm talking about, and the css code follows; Code: .borders { border: 1px solid #666666; } .footer { border: 1px solid #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; color: #333333; } .prodborders { border: 1px dotted #999999; } .text { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; color: #333333; } .headtext { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: #333333; font-weight: bold; } table.menu { border:1px solid #666666; background:#FFFFFF; } table.menu a, table.menu a:link, table.menu a:visited { font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:11px; line-height:12px; color:#333333; text-decoration:none; } table.menu a:active, table.menu a:hover { color:#333333; background:#CCCCCC; } .noborder { border:0px; margin-top:0px; } ul { margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; width: 92px; border-bottom: 1px solid #666666; backgound-image: url(images/no-pic.gif); } ul li { position: relative; } li ul { position: absolute; left: 91px; top: 0; display: none; } ul li a { display: block; text-decoration: none; color: #CCCCCC; background: #FFFFCC; padding: 5px; border: 1px solid #666666; border-bottom: 0; } /* Fix IE. Hide from IE Mac \*/ * html ul li { float: left; height: 1%; } * html ul li a { height: 1%; } /* End */ li:hover ul, li.over ul { display: block; } Thanks! if i want style changes for text links, but not image links, how would it work? a:hover { mystyle } img a:hover { otherstyle } a img:hover { otherstyle } ..neither of these work Hi, I'm trying to set up my (very basic, horizontal, no dropdown) CSS menu so that when a user hovers over the menu link items, the formatting changes and they basically get an image on mouseover (nothing more than changing the text colour and adding a curve on the left hand side, so it just looks like a selected tab). It kind of works but instead of the whole image showing it only shows in the area where the menu link text is, so instead of covering the height of the menu bar and a length I specify, it's just covering the actual word e.g "Home" in each case on the menu. I can't seem to get it so that on rollover the whole image shows. I've tried setting it so that the links have a background image (just a plain block from the nav bar) but that doesn't work. My CSS is: /* this is the bar where the menu is located */ .menuholder { width:1001px; height:2.19em; background-color:#0f2763; } /*holder for the menu */ div.navigation { margin-left:30px; padding-top:10px; } .navigation ul { list-style-type: none; position: relative; float: left; } .navigation ul li { display: block; padding: 0px 20px 0px 10px; display: inline; height:2.19em; } .navigation ul li a { font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#FFF; font-size:14px; font-weight:bold; line-height:18px; width:100px; height:2.19em; text-decoration:none; } .navigation ul li a:hover { color:#0f2763; background-image:url(/images/menutab.gif); width:100px; height:2.19em; } I've tried setting display:block; and float:left; on the .navigation ul li, but this makes the menu become vertical and throws the whole page out of sync. I tried this altrnative code, to no avail: .menuholder { width:1001px; height:2.19em; background-color:#0f2763; } div.navigation { margin-left:30px; padding-top:10px; height:2.19em; } .navigation ul { list-style-type: none; position: relative; float: left; } .navigation ul li { padding: 0px 20px 0px 10px; display: block; float:left; height:2.19em; } .navigation ul li:hover { color:#0f2763; background-image:url(/images/menutab.gif); width:100px; height:2.19em; background-repeat:no-repeat; } .navigation ul li a { font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#FFF; font-size:14px; font-weight:bold; line-height:18px; width:100px; height:2.19em; text-decoration:none; display: inline; } Any ideas or pointers gratefully received! what on hover effects for images CSS alows? for example can i make the image to turn in black and white on hover? or add a border? Hi all, Erm, when you load a site, and then mouseover something, (css hover) the image, depending on the size, will not load straightaway, but perhaps after a .5 second flash, which makes it look a bit ugly. Does anyone know how to make the page load all the images, without having to mouseover first? Thanks! Robin So the typical reason that I see people's images disappearing on hover has something to do with repositioning and substituting new images, etc. My case is that my hover code changes the opacity, that's it, and only to about .4 at the very very most. My solution works when slowly mousing over the image, however rapidly hovering/leaving the image causes the image do disappear for a period of time, as though the browser is re-requesting the image. Maybe that's the case? I'm not an expert on CSS. I can't seem to include a link due to some "akismetspam" phrase not being found? Hello, I'm having a problem getting my drop-down to appear in IE7. Works in IE8. Any suggestions? http://www.mo-pca.org Thanks, -Jamie i am having trouble with a hover button. it works fine in just an HTML page but when i put it on a CSS & php page nothing happens when i hover over it can anyone advise me on how to resolve this please.....thank you here is the code i am using for the button.... Code: <a href="productinfo.php" onMouseOut="MM_swapImgRestore()" onMouseOver="MM_swapImage('Add Button','','images/buttons/infoover.jpg',1)"><img src="images/buttons/info.jpg" name="Add Button" width="32" height="31" border="0"></a> Thanks in advanced to any replies RF Hi all, I have this piece of coding (which I'm pretty new at) that allows a "display:none;" span to appear on a link:hover. It works great in Firefox, but I can't for the life of me find why it isn't working in IE. I did this once with an Unordered List and it worked in IE, but now that I have used a table to structure the menu, it isn't working. here is the site: magicbeanz.blogsome.com I've attached the style sheet and html to this post. The relavent coding should be near the bottom. See #catmenu and the #books, #movies, #other, #hobbies, #games, divs. I really hope someone can help. Thanks in advance!! Oh, and I wouldn't mind some feedback on the coding and design. I'm back to working on my skills after a long break >< I have my links, and a:hover does not activate when the link has been visited. Is there any special for a hover visted link or any way to fix this? Whew, it's been a while sin'ce i've been here. Thanks in advance! ~Brendan Hi, I am trying to make a dropdown menu by using only CSS and no Javascript.

Mini Catalog Good day, I am a newbie, both to CSS and to these forums. I recently undertook a job to update a website for a charity and am dealing with the previous webmasters coding, both html and css. I am trying to modernize the site a bit, it is very 1997. I am running into a bit of trouble with the hover class on one of my pages. When a link has been visited, it no longer changes color and highlights on hover. I read on multiple forums, this one included that it is because you must define hover last, after visited, active, etc. I did this, but still does not work. I am using Firefox 2. Here is the code I am working with, sorry that is is a bit lengthy, I don't know what parts are important or not because when I just change the hover, link, visted part it doesn't work. The page I am working with is at beverlyfoundation . org / library / index . html /* THE BASICS */ body { font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; color: #eaf5ff; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; background-color: #c2d8ec; } p { margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 14px; margin-left: 0px; } img { border: none; } a:link, a:visited { text-decoration: none; color: #EAF5FF; } a:active, a:hover { text-decoration: underline; color: #E51322; } /* HEADERS */ h1, h2, h3 { font-family: Helvetica, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; margin: 0px 0px 14px; } h1 { font-size: 220%; text-align: right; font-style: italic; } h2 { font-size: 140%; } ul { list-style-position: outside; list-style-type: square; } /* TOP COLORED LINKS */ .navcells { text-align: center; vertical-align: middle; padding: 2px; font-weight: bold; font-size: 11px; } #navlinks a:link, a:visited { text-decoration: none; color: #EAF5FF; } #navlinks a:hover, a:active { text-decoration: underline; color: #EAF5FF; } /* LAYOUT */ #header { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; background-attachment: fixed; background-image: url(../images/header_gradient01_bg.jpg); background-repeat: repeat-x; background-position: left top; } #content { padding: 10px 20px 10px 10px; background-color: #0060BE; text-align: left; vertical-align: top; font-size: 12px; } #rightcolumn { background-color: #0060BE; padding: 10px; width: 220px; font-size: 11px; border-left-width: 1px; border-top-style: solid; border-right-style: solid; border-bottom-style: solid; border-left-style: solid; border-top-color: #EAF5FF; border-right-color: #EAF5FF; border-bottom-color: #EAF5FF; border-left-color: #EAF5FF; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; } #splashrightcolumn { background-color: #0060BE; padding: 10px; width: 220px; font-size: 11px; } #rightcolumn img { margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; } #rightcolumn p { margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 7px; margin-left: 0px; } #rightcolumn h1 { font-size: 180%; text-align: center; font-style: italic; } #rightcolumn h2 { margin-top: 21px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 7px; margin-left: 0px; text-align: center; } #rightcolumn a:link, a:visited { text-decoration: none; color: #EAF5FF; } #rightcolumn a:hover, a:active { text-decoration: underline; color: #EAF5FF; } #threecolumn { padding: 10px; width: 220px; text-align: left; vertical-align: top; font-size: 12px; } #threecolumn a:link, a:visited { color: #EAF5FF; text-decoration: none; } #threecolumn a:hover, a:active { color: #EAF5FF; text-decoration: underline; } #footer { color: #EAF5FF; padding: 10px; font-size: 11px; text-align: left; vertical-align: top; line-height: 14px; } #footer a { color: #EAF5FF; text-decoration: none; } #address { color: #EAF5FF; padding: 10px; font-size: 11px; text-align: left; vertical-align: top; border-left-width: 1px; border-top-color: #EAF5FF; border-right-color: #EAF5FF; border-bottom-color: #EAF5FF; border-left-color: #EAF5FF; border-top-style: solid; border-right-style: solid; border-bottom-style: solid; border-left-style: solid; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; } #address a { color: #EAF5FF; text-decoration: underline; } #address h2 { margin: 0px; } .threecolumns { color: #EAF5FF; padding: 10px; font-size: 11px; text-align: left; vertical-align: top; } .resourcestore p { margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 4px; margin-left: 0px; } .gradientrow { background-image: url(../images/footer_bg01.jpg); } .copyright { font-size: 10px; } .resourcestore { padding: 10px; } I have a thumbnail image with a link below. When hovering over the link, I want the enlarged image to pop up. I've tried it 2 ways. Both are close, but neither works the way I want it. Perhaps someone can help tweak one of these options? Option 1 is he http://concrete-creative.com/temp/print/1.html **What I don't like here is that you can hover over a big, blank area below the link and the larger image pops up. I only want the linked text [JACK IT UP] to pop the larger image up. Option 1_B is he http://concrete-creative.com/temp/print/1_B.html **The problem here is the the larger image while INVISIBLE is sitting below the text [JACK IT UP] which is pushing my HTML table too wide. Can someone help me find the happy medium between these 2 solutions so it works the way I want it to? THANKS! |
