if anyone out there can explain this to me i would greatly appreciate it.

i have a CSS style sheet that uses the <A> tag to set the link, visited, active and hover properties of my text. however, random links throughout the site do not respond to the hover property, but they do respond to the other properties. i have found i can make them work by changing one letter in the <A HREF> tag.

for example, this works::
Code:
<TR> 
            <TD bgColor=#cccccc> <A 
            href=&quot;[URL unfurl="true"]http://home.hamptonroads.com/calendar/result.cfm&quot;[/URL] class=&quot;channelLinks&quot;>Local 
              Events</A><BR>
            </TD>
          </TR>

this doesn't::
Code:
<TR> 
            <TD bgColor=#cccccc> <A 
            href=&quot;[URL unfurl="true"]http://home.hamptonroads.com/calendar/results.cfm&quot;[/URL] class=&quot;channelLinks&quot;>Local 
              Events</A><BR>
            </TD>
          </TR>
*note that the &quot;s&quot; in result&quot;S&quot; is not there in the first post. not all are cuased by the letter &quot;s&quot;, but it does seem to be a common cause of the problem
 
Can't see what your problem would be then. Can you post the CSS scripting? That might be where the problem is.
 
Do you have a space between .cfm&quot; & class= DeZiner
Never be afraid to try something new.

i've done it with a space and without. this is my CSS for the links....

Code:
code
/*     -=LINKS=-     */

A:hover {  color: #990000; text-decoration: underline; }
A:visited, A:link {  color: #000066; text-decoration: none; }
A:active {  color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: underline;}

i'm boggled. it is always the url that makes this happen too. i even put the class=&quot;whatever&quot; in front of the url (<A class=&quot;whatever&quot; HREF=&quot; and that worked on some, but not all.
