mouse over on navigation

IMK17 · #1 Nov 28, 2007, 05:21 AM

On the left hand navigation bar of my web site, I have a white background, with all my links displaying with a blue font. Currently when I hover my mouse over the link, the text disappears.

I would like to create the effect of when I hover my mouse over a link, the background colour goes purple, and the text goes to a white font.

Thanks,

This will do it for all links on the page:

Code:

<style>
a:hover {background-color:purple; color:white;}
</style>

If you only want this to happen to certain links then:

Code:

<style>
a.purpleHover:hover  {background-color:purple; color:white;}
</style>
<body>
<a class="purpleHover" href="#">Hover here</a>
<br>
<a href="#">Normal Link</a>
</body>

HTH,
