In my css I have:


.bodylinks A:hover
{
COLOR: mediumslateblue
}


works ok in IE, not in Netscape. I'm guessing Netscape doesn't support it at all unless it's fairly recent.

Is there a way to get this effect to work in Netscape?

a not A

a:hover

i also usually use the hex color codes except for black or white (im picky about colors :])

Yes. IE doesn't care about capitalization, but most other browsers do.

but you're telling me that this should work in Netscape too, right?

a:hover {
color: mediumslateblue;
}
.bodylinks {
color: mediumslateblue;
}

actually i forgot to say

COLOR should be color

and try them seperate first then combine. But THIS SHOULD WORK [Hammer]

I'd venture to say that Netscape doesn't recognize "mediumslateblue". Use the hex color code.

There's always a better way...

scroce,

You could try specifying the color in an external stylesheet and then using the class with your anchor tag.

But, if all your case is correct, then the next thing I would check, as tviman has suggested, is to use the hex code. Try it with something weird and obviously artificial, like #7BA2CC which is, well, a sorta slate blue.

BTW nutscrap 4.6 is the worst of em all

I would suggest upgrading or downgrading to 3.0 lol [Hammer]

I don't think 4.6 supports "hover" There's always a better way...
 
uh oh - how do you know that? did you attempt it? Q: Why is my computer doing that?

let me put it this way

4.6 4.7 are the buggiest browsers ever
How else do you think Netscape became Nutscrap

UPGRADE AND TEST IT [Hammer]

well, none of the suggestions worked. I guess that's why I'm saying "NUTS!, CRAP!"

Hi
Did you try a.bodylinks:hover {.... Hope I helped / Thanks for helping
if ((Math.abs(x)<10&&Math.abs(y)<10) &&(((parseIntx.toString()+y.toString())-x-y)%9)!=0)){alert(&quot;I'm a monkey's uncle&quot;);}
