using CSS hover to display an image

12 New Member
hola

i figured out how to make an image appear next to a link when hovering by displaying it as a block and then using background:url

div.menu a{
display:block;
}


div.menu a:hover{
background:url( images/menuhover.gif) left no-repeat;
}

(ps here is a link if you want to see it in action . . . )
http://ferncreekdesign.spiritserver.org

now what i would like to do is to have a series of thumbnails on the edge of the page and use the hover property to display an image in the center of the page, which will change as i hover over the various thumbnails.

i said i would LIKE . . . is this possible??

Hi there, I have an HTML page with one large background image in the left corner. I've got various links positioned randomly on the image, and I use <span> tags to display text on another section of the page when hovering over the links. Here's an example of the code: <head> <title>My Title</title> <style type="text/css">

Hi all, I'm using the following code in my website, and it's looking totally different on IE and Firefox. It actually works on IE while Firefox is weird. In CSS: img.left_nav_1 {background: transparent;} a.left_nav_1 { background : url(/images/rollovers_01.gif);} a.left_nav_1:hover {background : url(/images/rollovers_01-over.gif);}

Hi there, I've got a gif with (highly) irregular shapes (lots of jigsaw pieces) that I want to map so that each piece is a link... The pieces are currently just a frame drawing, but as they are hovered over I want them to be coloured in. I thought the easiest way to do this would be to change the background image of the entire map (since it's a bit of a pain trying to select each piece out of the image and

I've studied Eric Meyer's pure css popups, version two: http://meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/popups/demo2.html which pops up an image when I roll over a text link.

To the left of the menu item I want to display another image (a 6px dot) 10 to 15 px from the menu item; I will use one colour image for the current page and another colour image for the hover item.

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,...
