CSS - Css: Change Background-image On Link Mouseover
Hi.
I have just recently begun working with CSS. Is it possible with CSS (and without the use of any JavaScript) to have the background image change on a link mouseover? I have the first image below (blue.jpg) set as my default background image and would like the second image (blue1.jpg) to display when the user hovers over a particular link. URL URL Thanks for any help anyone can offer Similar TutorialsOn my site I have a list of links on the left side. I keep them in an unordered list, and set the background image using css. I want to change the image on rollover. In Firefox I can just change it putting by :hover after an li in the style sheet as if it were an anchor, but IE won't accept that, and for some reason I can't get the style to change using javascript either. Any help appreciated- I know it's something really simple that I'm just not seeing. IE also won't display the hand cursor, but if I figure out how to get the image to change I can do the hand on my own at the same time. Firefox does everything right, so you can use that to see what i'm going for. Hi. Really hoping someone can help me with this... I'll try and explain this as best I can(!) Basically I've got a page containing a block of 9 images, with each linking to a video clip. At the moment I've got the CSS coded so that whenever the mouse is hovered over the 'infobar' (at the bottom of each image) it goes from having a transparent background with black text to having a grey background with white text. What I'm trying to achieve is that same effect whenever the mouse is hovered over any part of the image and infobar.

Any help would be very-much appreciated - and save an old bloke from tearing too much of his hair out(!) Using transparent gif text. It is linked On mouse over, there is a white background with an opacity of 50%, can I do this with only CSS or will I need to use javascript? How do I do this? I've figured out the opaque text on 50% opaque white background. Hi, I have a link and an image next to each other. I want to make the link hovered when I do mouseover on image. How do I do that ? Here is the code I have now. <a href="javascript:undefined" id="imageLinkId">GMNA</a> <script language="javascript"> if( ... ) { document.write('<img src="/graphics/channel/plus.png" id="div18Img" alt="Maximize this section" onMouseOver= >'); } else { document.write('<img src="/graphics/channel/minus.png" id="div18Img" alt="Minimize this section" onMouseOver= >'); } </script> Thanks Greetings I'm sure if I was cleverer I could figure this out for myself, but... Also if I could figure out what the last person who more than likely already got an answer about this topic called it in their post, I might have found it in the search, but... So, what I'm trying to do is this: I have a grid of images that link to a series of pages. To the right there is a standard navagation menu that also links to the same pages, and has a hover background color. What I (and by "I" I really mean the person who I am building this for, since I wouldn't do it this way, but...) want to have happen is that when you mouseover the images they highlight the corresponding links in the navagation menu. here is the css: Code: // the image grid
#left {
float: left;
height: auto;
text-align: center;
width: 810px;
}
#left ul {
padding: 0px;
list-style-type: none;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-right: 0px;
margin-bottom: 0px;
margin-left: 0px;
}
#left img {
border-top-style: none;
border-right-style: none;
border-bottom-style: none;

Sorry for the long post, but I hope that makes sense... Thanks in advance for any help. I have a button which is drawn using css background-image and it has a hover effect using css a:hover. I also need to have a click state for this button, so that each time the button is clicked it switches between two different states (4 states total). Is this possible? I'm assuming this will probably require JavaScript which I have little experience. Thanks in advance for any help! Trying to get my td backgrounds and my links to change colors when you roll over into the td. However only both change when you roll over the link within the td. If you roll over just the td, it changes, but I need both the link color and the bg color to change when you roll over the td. Here's what I'm going for, the category set up I mean: http://www.colemancampingstore.com/link-hiking.html Here's my CSS etc. PHP Code: td:hover.cats { background-color: #446644; color:white; } a:link.catlink { font-size: 12px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000; text-decoration: underline; } a:visited.catlink { font-size: 12px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-decoration: underline; color: #000; } a:hover.catlink { font-size: 12px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-decoration: none; } a:active.catlink { font-size: 12px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000; text-decoration: underline; } echo "<td class='cats' ><center>"; echo "<b><a href='links.php?cat=".$myrow['cat']."' class='catlink'>".$myrow['cat']." </a></b><br>"; echo "</center></td>"; } Is there a way to achieve this effect without using javascript and junk? 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 would like the link colour to change and the background of the <li> to change as well. I can't figure out what CSS to use for it though. I have made bold and underlined the li I want to change on hover. Code: <li id="menuitem_2mainnav"> <a id="menulink_2mainnav" class="mainlevelmainnav" href="/example/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1&Itemid=2">Meetings</a> <ul id="menulist_2mainnav"> <li id="menuitem_2_1mainnav"><a id="menulink_2_1mainnav" class="sublevelmainnav" href="/example/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1&Itemid=14">TEST 1</a></li> <li id="menuitem_2_2mainnav"><a id="menulink_2_2mainnav" class="sublevelmainnav" href="/example/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1&Itemid=15">TEST 2</a></li> <li id="menuitem_2_3mainnav"><a id="menulink_2_3mainnav" class="sublevelmainnav" href="/example/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1&Itemid=16">TEST 3</a></li> <li id="menuitem_2_4mainnav"><a id="menulink_2_4mainnav" class="sublevelmainnav" href="/example/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1&Itemid=17">TEST 4</a></li> </ul> </li> I have tried: Code: #menulist_2mainnav li:hover{ color:#000000 !important; }
But it doesn't change the links text colour. Hi guys, Is it possible in CSS to change the colour / image of the page background dynamically. So that as you hovered over different links , the background of the page changed. I know you can do this in JS but how would you do it in CSS? I was kinda thinking something like: a.linkname:hover, a.linkname:focus body { background-color:#00FF00; } but thats just a guess and doesnt work lol. Many Thanks, Alvin. Hi everyone, I'm looking for a solution that I thought (hoped) would be simple. ...but of course is not. I use sprites for rollover effects so the hover attribute just changes the background image position. Everything works cool with the rollovers. What I would like to do, is make a text link that when rolled over will change a separate background image to it's hover state. I should add, that the the rollover image has it's own div and is separate from where the text link is located. To get a visual you can check the website (just remove the *) *onholdmusicsource*.com In the body section I would like to make each of the dark red section titles a link that when rolled over will change the hover state of the corresponding "more" button. Comments would be fine Ideas would be great Solutions would be fantastic Many Thanks- Hi, Please help me with this, I'm at my wit's end. I can not for the life of me set the background image of a link from the CSS. I can do it from the link HTML itself with: Code: style="background-image: url(resources/menu_over.jpg);" But I CANNOT do it from the CSS with something like this: Code: <a class="navlink" href="#">asdf</a> Code: .navlink
{
/*background-color: red;*/
background-image: url(resources/menu_over.jpg);
}
Also, I am referincing my CSS file correctly b/c I tested it with "background-color", as you can see above. Please help... thanks Just wondering if there was any way to have a background-image as a link? The reason why: I have a banner across the top of a site, and I'm sure I can probably lay it out using Divs, but I had made the banner a background anyways because I have a horiz. nav. menu that needed to go across the bottom of the banner on the left side. Essentially, there's a logo at the top left, nav. menu on the bottom left, and an image on the entire right side. But now I realized that I should make the logo a link back to the main page of the site. So can I make a background-image as a link, or do I need to pull it out and make it a regular image? Thanks. I have a site where the header img for the page is actually set in the CSS as a background-image: url (link). However, in good form, I'd like to place an <a href="home.htm"> on that image so that users can click the top header and return to the home page. Has anyone done this? If so, how did you accomplish it? I had been helped on this board previously with this question for a site I was working on. I am using the same approach on another site to link back to the home page from the internal pages. And for all intents and purposes it is working. However I could/can not figure out how to precisely position where the link starts and ends. http://www.guestwardho.com/campground_map.html If, for example, you go to the above page and put your mouse over the header image you will see the link begins at the left edge of the header image. If you move to the right the link 'ends' a little more then half way across the image - at the uppercase 'H' in 'Ho' for reference. Again, this is fine for this purpose/site, but cannot figure out how to control where the link area starts and ends. Thank you in advance for your assistance. ok here is a thing, it is also a firefox and ei related issue, when i specify background image for my link and specify lef-padding so that, small image that i attached looks like bulleting point, now if my width of the link is longer then my column then logically it will continue on a next line, and everything is great in firefox, but in ei what happens to background image it centers between two lines. So how can i fix it so it sticks to with in first boundary edges of the first line like in fire fox. to see example check the opticsblog.com Hi, I'm using html:link with a background image. This works fine on IE and Firefox, but the link won't show in Mozilla. Could changes to the css fix this? Does anyone know how to solve this? Regards, Nina Hello, I'm trying to create an list menu like the one in attached image and I have 2 problems. 1. In IE 6,IE 7 the list is ordered verticaly and not horizontaly (in Opera and FF it is ok) 2. I need to align the text on the bottom of the list like inattached image. Here is what I manage to do till now : http://www.sibiul.net/test/list-align.php Anyone knows what I must do ? 10x Hi, I have found this code in a php thing of mine and I would like to change it, and this bit off css is what makes it "happen". As it stands, when you mouse over a row nothing happens. What I would like it to do is change colour of the whole row (rows 1-4) (Like in phpMyAdmin browse section). This is the code I think I should change: Code: /* Common elements */
.row1 { background-color: #F5F9FD }
.row2 { background-color: #DFE6EF }
.row3 { background-color: #EEF2F7 }
.row4 { background-color: #E4EAF2 }
I also have this bit of CSS that can change ONE row's colour, but not all of them at the same time. If it helps, this is the code. I have edited the code into the main php file I have, in all the rows, but it only changes one "cell" when you hover over it, and not the whole row. Code:
<td class="row4" onmouseover='window.status="{$info['name']}";
this.style.backgroundColor=iOver;' onmouseout='window.status="Done";
this.style.backgroundColor=iOut;' onclick="javascript:window.location.href='{$ibforums->base_url}showforum={$info['id']}';">;
</td>
</span></td>
Thanks, Prism128 PS: The iOver and iOut (in the second code) are colour references in a php file I know how to make the background of a link change but how do you do it if it isnt a link? in css... |
