Hover Buttons don't work

powahusr · May 28, 2001

I’m finding that my hover buttons don’t work when I post them to a Web Server (UNIX) I use on the net. The Hover Buttons work fine locally on my pc, but for some reason when I post my page to the server and view the page, they don't work. I believe that the directory structure is setup the same as it is on my pc, which includes the following 2 files bellow.

animate.js
fphover.class

I'm running IE 5.5
Created the page with Front Page2000

If helpful, refer the code bellow in question, Thanks in Advance!!:

First off, I don't see a closing tag for the </head>.

Here's a program that I've been playing with over the weekend.

CSE HTML Validator Lite v2.5. That's the Free version. The Pro version has more features and a price tag. Both can be found at

http://www.htmlvalidator.com/

If you've been going cross eyed looking at code, it might help out.

Thanks for your advice. For some reason, the </head> tag didn't make its way into the example that I provided, but it's indeed inside the page in question that I posted. The link that you provided to the HTML Validator program doesn't work, maybe there is a typo? Looks like it could be something helpful to have, can you re-send me the correct link to that validator program? Also, if you have any further advice to provide me about the Hover Buttons, i would appreciate it.

I have the </head> inserted above the folowing line:

<body bgcolor=#333333 onload="dynAnimation()">

Browsers sometimes do strange things.

If you search for htmlvalidator in any search engine you should get hits for CSE. Lycos was the only one that was showing it on page two of their results. All others were showing htmlvalidator listed usually in the top 1 or 2.

This link was a cut and paste from their web site.

http://www.htmlvalidator.com/

and I just tested it in preview mode before posting.
