:hover behavior doesnt work in MSIE?

4 New Member
Is it possible to make MSIE actually read :hover attribute for other tags, than <a> ?

I made sth like that:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. #vfiles li {
  2.   background-color: #DCE9DC;
  3. }
  4.  
  5. #vfiles li:hover {
  6.   background-color: #D2E4D2;
  7. }
  8.  
And it works fine on Gecko (Firefox), but does not want to run on MSIE. Any suggestions how to fix it, or how to make MSIE start paying attention on :hover attributes in other elements than just <a>? Thanks a lot!

The page under discussion was http://ppewww.ph.gla.ac.uk/~flavell/www/html-smac.html An email correspondent referred to the link text "screenshot" in part 2, which in his case was coming at the right-hand end of a line. As soon as he hovered over it in MSIE, it sprang to the next line - making it impossible to use it, obviously. This didn't happen in Mozilla (which by the way reports that this page is in standards-compliance mode, if...

I know I could do it by restricting hover to a class of links (a:hover.actuallyalink) but is there a way that doesn't require me to change every link in every existing html document?

I'm trying to use the hover pseudo-attribute to display footnotes in documentation. The footnotetext is hidden until you hover over the footnotemark. This work well in Safari and Firefox, but I can't seem to get it to work in MSIE. Is this even possible in MSIE? If so, can you explain why this CSS doesn't work? <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html>

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
