I am trying to figure out how to Change the color of a link when the mouse hovers it. Anyone have any idea's ? I would like it to be like the sitepoint links .. except without the line .. I have the without line part .. now I just need to get the colors to change.

Thanks

Chuck

Hi Chucki !

There is a fast way - but it only will function in Microsofts Explorer.

Add a a:hover style to your style definition.
like this :

a {color:red}
a:hover {color:blue}

In Netscape Navigator you have to write Event-Handlers. This works in the same way as if you wanted to use *highlight graphics*...

Hello Chucki.

The new NS Browser also supports CSS mouseover effects too.

Just a little note on the side!

Hi,

A more efficient way would be:

a { font-family: Verdana, Arial; font-size: 10pt; }
a:hover { color: #000000; }
a:link { color: #A80000; }
a:vlink { color: #FFFFFF; }

You could also set text-decorations: underline; etc.
