CSS - Theoretical Question - Changing Other Elements On Hover?

Im making a website and i wanted to know if i made a map like:

a.img:hover {img url(image.jpg);}

and then back into HTML do this:

<a class="hello" href="www.domain.com">Link</a>

and then when i hover over the link it will change into a image link? and it dose not work for me.

How can I apply the CSS "hover" element only to certain tags by using the "style" attribute?

Having trouble with using CSS for email link. The problem is that mouse hover produces a black background - this is the intention. However, after clicking on link to open email client, the link (on that page) doesn't have the balck background effect. Other pages in the site are OK - until I click them once.

Am I missing a section from the css file below that would give me the same hover effect even after the action of clicking the mailto: link has been done?

Many thanks

a:link.link1 {
color: #CDBC75;
text-decoration: none;
background-color: transparent
}
a:visited.link1 {
color: #CDBC75;
text-decoration: none;
background-color: transparent
}
a:hover.link1 {
color: #CDBC75;
text-decoration: none;
background-color: #000000
}
a:active.link1 {
color: #CDBC75;
text-decoration: none;
background-color: transparent

Good Day All,

I have a basic layout question. In this page, any many others, I have my image element floated to the left of a table. This seems to work well in big resolutions but when I view the page on smaller resolutions, the table gets pushed down below the image. In some cases, this is ok... but if I want to prevent this from happening and keep the img and table together to prevent the dropping, how can I do this? What is the cleanest/easiest way? In the example below, the 4th table from the top is the one that will drop first. Any thoughts greatly appreciated. Also, I would like to keep my liquid layout other than grouping these two items together - and I only need to apply this to a few of them, not all.

I'm taking a condensed class at the community college here and my final is due tomorrow night. My teacher has a very thick Russian accent and is very difficult to understand, and does not make himself particularly available away from class hours...so...I'm sort of stuck. I understand that this is an embarrassingly basic CSS I've got rigged up here, so I need no critiquing on it, though if you feel you must, go ahead. Anyway, I was finishing the thing up tonight and realized that I missed one of the requirements for this final project (sloppy handwriting =( ). My main question is this: On each page I have a series of thumbnails, and one larger image at left. I would like to (either with addition to the CSS, or with not too much extra addition to each of the thirty some pages) create a hover effect wherein ONLY the larger image at left will load a larger version of the image on mouseover. I found a few examples on CSS tutorial websites but have been unable to correctly apply it. I am really in a jam and would appreciate any help anyone could give me on this. Additionally, (I know this one is really pushing it) I was not able to resize images, as I am on a new machine and a tight budget, so couldn't afford a copy of photoshop. Most of the images are already resized to 600 x 800 (downloaded from my photobucket account onto the new machine after the old died) but a few of them are larger sizes...so on the mouseover, is there a way to constrain all images to their correct proportions, regardless of filesize? I think this might be an impossibility but I thought it was worth the time to ask anyway (e.g. 600 x 800 images that are constrained to a smaller size, will pop over on mouseover to full 600 x 800, while images that may exceed those dimensions would still on mouseover pop over at a maximum of 600 or 800, whichever side is the largest, and the smaller size whatever it should be proportionally)?

I know this is really convoluted and probably sounds incredibly dumb, but most of us in the class have essentially self-taught ourselves, given how difficult our instructor is to follow in the classroom, so I've done everything on this project by trying to find examples in a pretty terrible text book.

Any help would be hugely appreciated.

I am pasting in the CSS sheet, as well as the code for an example page, so that someone might possibly be able to help me correct/add this.

If you are able to help, please be as explicit and obvious as possible, because I am having a hard time working this out on my own.

and the section of code which I would like the mouseover to be effective on:



<div id="content">

<div id="large-image-frame">

<div id="large-image-box">

<img src="images/OP06.jpg" width="94%" height="94%" alt="OP06" />

The section in red is where the image is that I would like to be able to mouseover for a larger (approximately 600 x 800 or 600 x _______/ or _____________ x 800, depending on proportions). Again, I'm desperate, and would be super super grateful for any help/pity any of you might toss my way. Thanks.

I am wondering how to use CSS where I can have the same layout on every page, and if say I change the content in the footer it will change on EVERY page

Tip of the tongue syndrome:

What is the CSS selector that affects all elements, again?

I remember it being "*" or something

I want to apply a thin border to everything on my layout so I can see where the positionings have gone.

Hello all,

I'm having a bit of trouble with a list of relative, floated <li> elements, each containing a single absolutely positioned div that appears on hover. I'm using the :hover pseudo-class currently but I will use JavaScript for IE6 once it displays correctly.

The code is below. The problem is that the <div> appears on top of it's parent element but behind all other elements.

Code:

		#wrapper-body ul.staff-list{
			list-style-type:none;
			padding-top:10px;
			position:relative;
		}
	
		#wrapper-body ul.staff-list-team{ width:313px; padding-top:0; padding-bottom:15px; margin-bottom:20px; border-bottom:1px solid #d7e3a9; }
	
			#wrapper-body ul.staff-list li{
				float:left;
				width:230px;
				position:relative;
				padding:8px 0 8px 15px;
				z-index:1;
			}
			#wrapper-body ul.staff-list-team li{ width:151px; padding-left:0; padding-left:5px; }
			#wrapper-body ul.staff-list-team li.right{ padding-left:5px; }
			#wrapper-body ul.staff-list-clerks li{ float:none; width:310px; padding-left:5px; }
			#wrapper-body ul li.highlight{ background-color:#f4f6ec; }
				#wrapper-body ul.staff-list li p{
					padding:0 0 9px 0;
					margin-left:91px;
				}
	
				#wrapper-body ul.staff-list li small{
					padding:0 0 5px 0;
					margin-left:91px;
				}
		
				#wrapper-body ul.staff-list-clerks li span{
					color:#A6302B;
					display:block;
					float:left;
				}
		
				#wrapper-body ul.staff-list-clerks li span.clerk-name{ width:140px; }
				#wrapper-body ul.staff-list-clerks li span.clerk-phone{ width:120px; background:url(../img/structure/clerks-phone.gif) 0 2px no-repeat; padding-left:23px; }
				#wrapper-body ul.staff-list-clerks li a.clerk-email{ display:block; float:left; height:16px; width:16px; background:url(../img/structure/clerks-mail.gif) 0 3px no-repeat; }
		
		
				#wrapper-body ul.staff-list li div.staff-list-detail{
					display:none;
					background:url(../img/structure/staff-list-bottom.gif) left bottom repeat-x;
					padding-bottom:3px;
					margin-top:-15px;
					left:4px;
					z-index:10;
					top:15px;
					position:absolute;
				}

				#wrapper-body ul.staff-list li div.staff-list-detail a{ background:url(../img/structure/staff-list-bullet.gif) no-repeat 0 4px; padding-left:8px; }

				#wrapper-body ul.staff-list li:hover div.staff-list-detail{

Thanks for reading!

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!

I'm making a webpage for myself, and am coding to current Transitional XHTML and CSS standards. I'm using Firefox 0.9.2 for viewing the page.

The problem I'm having is with adding a class to a <td> element and getting it to work correctly in IE 6. The CSS class I'm using for the <td> element is as follows:

Code:

.w3type{color: black; background-color: #FFCE6B;}

Code:

.w3type:hover{color: white; background-color: red; background-image: url(images/mrgreen.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: right;}

I add this class to a <td> tag:

Code:

<td class="w3type">

and when i view it in FF, the text and background work correctly, changing color and adding a little image to the right when I hover my mouse over it.

The problem is that when I go to view the code in action with IE 6, neither the background nor the image will appear on hover. Is this a problem with IE, or my code?

If you want to see the code on my site, here's the link. The css formatting in question is on the lower left corner of the page (the W3C webbadges).

Thanks for any help

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.

Hi,

I have found a nice feature on this website;

When you mouse over grey - orange images another div comes out.

What this is called?

Is there any example code that I can work on?

Thanks.

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.

Hello:
I would like to have a big font size of title on my web site for search engine optimuzation purpose, I wrap the title with a H1, then I define H1 in css as
FONT-WEIGHT: bold;
FONT-SIZE: 34px;
COLOR: #000000;

in other place I also have
A:hover {COLOR: #6460AD; TEXT-DECORATION: underline;

the title I put in is a hyper link, so when the mouse hovers on the title, the title shown as underlined, I want it to be TEXT-DECORATION: none

I don't know the syntax in H1 definetion to disable the underline

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;
}
