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 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 Hi I have a css file stating the following: A:link { color: #71828A } A:visited { color: #71828A } A:active { color: #71828A } ... of course this is applied to the whole page. I would like to set different link colors inside table data: #BottomTable TD A:link { color: #CCCCCC } ... but this doesnt work! Any ideas, please? 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.. ? Like say I want to change the color of a single link while leaving default to all the others.. How do I get rid of the blue text and underline ?? Here is my style sheet #page_content { margin-left: 200px; } #container { position: relative; width: 100%; } #background { width: 100%; position: absolute; z-index: -1; top: 0; left: 0; background-color: #000000; } #testbox{ width: 100%; height:100%; position: relative; } #menu li{ display: inline; text-transform: uppercase; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.0em; font-weight: bold; padding: 0 10px 0 10px; color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: none; } #data{ width: 190px; height: 200px; margin: 20px; position: absolute; bottom: 150px; color: #FFFFFF; font-size:1.3em; } how do you define the the color of a hyperlink before it has been clicked and after it has been clicked?

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 What is the best practice for giving an <a> a different color than the underline? Background image? <a><span></span></a>? Something else? Hi, Is there any way to change the color of the menu text for that current page? For example when I'm on the 'About Us' page on my website, I want the text to be blue or #00175d to be precise. I am not very good at coding or editing HTML/CSS, so I don't know how to do this. All I know is that my website has a class on the body, and each menu item has a unique ID. My website is: http://firstcareambulance .org/ Any help is appreciated. Thanks Alright - so I just changed my Java Script based navigation menu over to a CSS based menu for better search engine crawling and easy of use. Here's what I want, and can't seem to do: The original font color of a the links is "white". Easy enough. When you mouse over the link it turns light grey. Looks great! This part works wonders. Here's the problem...When you visit a page in the navigation, the "hover: change color to grey" doesn't work anymore. Instead of remains solid white. Is there a fix/trick to making it work so that always always when you hover over these links they change to grey. Whether the link is active, or already visited, it turns grey during hover. Thank for your help! To see this in action visit Window Film and More.com and take a look at the left navigation. Going to the far below link and clicking on the top link "projects" of that page brings up a menu with three links. Clicking on one of those links, 'Built' for example, brings up another submenu and at the same time it highlights "Built" as orange. Clicking on "Unbuilt" or "In Progress" has the same effect. What I'm now needing to happen is if say you click on "Block" under the "Built" menu and it goes to the "Block" page I have "projects" and "Block" highlighted as orange but I'm not sure how to have "Built" continually highlighted as orange but when either "Unbuilt" or "In Progress" is clicked on the link "Built" goes to grey and the menu item clicked on turns to orange - as I currently have it. Seems what I need is an CSS class/ID OnLoad for just "Built" (per this example) to where when going to the "Block" page the link "Built" is orange in the beginning but when the other links are clicked on it turns to grey. Would anyone have advice on how to achieve this? This doesn't work in Safari btw: http://www.royseeagleton.com/new/ Thanks!, Wesley |
