Mouse over making the tect bold

[kruxty]

I have a menu with (e.g. TEXT1 ; TEXT2 ; TEXT3 ; ...).
What i want is to make the text bold when the mouse pointer passes over the text! How can i do this? I use DreamWeaver there are any behavior that makes this easier?

Bold can really screw the look up onMouseover, but here you go...

<style>
a:link, a:visited {text-decoration: none; color: blue;}
a:hover {text-decoration: none; color: red; font-weight: bold;}

where do i put that?

You can put it in your header.

As Mike pointed out, however, having text suddenly switch to bold can make your layout twitch. Use carefully.

i didn't understand it verywell yet... that litlle script doesn't make all the text on the page become bold when i put the mouse over the text?

 

[kruxty]

Ok... i understand now!
And if i want to this just to some links and the others with italic for example?!

i want just some links

e.g.

.: menu :.
.: photos : bio : games :.

i want just the phots-bio-games menu! Is this possible?

Well if it's just links then use the code the guys gave you.
or

<style type=&quot;text/css&quot;>
<!--
a:link {color: ; text-decoration: none; }
a:active {color: ; text-decoration: none; }
a:visited {color: ; text-decoration: none; }
a:hover {color: ; text-decoration: none; }
-->
</style>
This will be applied to ALL links in the document.
