Is there a way to turn this DHTML code into CSS code? If so what is the correct way it should be put in the code?


Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.  
  2. onmouseover="this.style.backgroundColor='#0061D7';" onmouseout="this.style.backgroundColor='#3D93FF';"
  3.

[HTML]onmouseover="th is.style.backgr oundColor='#006 1D7';" onmouseout="thi s.style.backgro undColor='#3D93 FF';"[/HTML]
The text or object you want to apply those attributes to can be wrapped using the <span></span> tags.
For Example:
[HTML]<span class="someclas sname">Your Text or Object Here</span>[/HTML]
Then the css would be:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. /* this is for the mouseout and default settings */
  2.  
  3. .someclassname {
  4.   background-color: #3D93FF;
  5. }
  6.  
  7. /* :hover is a pseudo selector to use to set the mouseover attributes */
  8. .someclassname:hover {
  9.   background-color: #0061D7;
  10. }
  11.  
I hope this helps.
Let me know if you have any other questions.

Yes it helps alot. Just a question, would it be better to have an CSS hover effect vs this effect?

If you want to have the effect still appear even if the user has javascript disabled then use CSS.*note*: If you are applying this to table rows that alternate colors you have to apply the css to the table ROW




for example:
[HTML]<table>
<tr class="someclas s">
<td>foo</td>
</tr>
</table>[/HTML]
Your css looks like this:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. tr.someclass {
  2. background-color: #CCCCCC;
  3. }
  4. tr.someclass:hover {
  5. background-color: #E2E2E2;
  6. }

So if the user has javascript disabled they will still see the :hover effect. At that point it's just a matter of your preference on which to use.

Hi. I'm doing something like that, but just a little bit different. I have a table (sudoku table, to be precise), and I have a text that talks about different cells, and I would want that when someone put the mouse over the name of the cell (r5c6, or whatever) that cell inverts it's color (text color and background color). I would also like to do this in css. Can someone help me? Thank you very much.

Hi. I have a DIV section that has many thumbnail images inside it. I have a DIV so all images can fit in a row and the horizontal scroll bar is used to move the thumbnails from left to right. Does anyone know any code to have the DIV scroll from left to right when I use an onmouseover on two images either side of the DIV? Thanks Laurie
