In netscape, can you see the roll-overs at anandtech?

[zippy]

I'm designing a site for my sister's business and it will have those kinda roll-overs (well, not just anandtech has the HTML text roll-overs...firingsquad and a bunch of other sites do too), but I just want to be sure that people in NetScape will be able to have the roll-overs. I had my friend who is a Linux Netscape user (and has the version of Netscape that came with Mandrake 7.0) check it out...and he said he couldn't see the roll-overs...is this because of linux/possibly older version of netscape or just because of netscape?

Thanks.

it is called css.

It the code is not there for netscape for a couple fo reasons. It is no the same code, and it looks funny the way netscape handles it. NS6 though works just fine.

Adul, thanks, but for Netscape 6.0, do you need CSS scripts or is that just for earlier versions?

my current versio works fine. I download the nightly builds btw

I use the same thing on my site, but my hosting service has been ass lately, and you might not be able to get there. Anyway, here's the code to do it:

<td align=&quot;center&quot; onclick=&quot;location.href='http://www.codebloat.com/'&quot; onmouseover=&quot;this.style.backgroundColor='#CBDCEC';this.style.cursor='hand';&quot; onmouseout=&quot;this.style.backgroundColor='#FFFFFF';&quot;>
<font face=&quot;verdana, arial, helvetica&quot; size=&quot;1&quot;><b><a style=&quot;text-decoration: none; color: 000000&quot; href=&quot;http://www.codebloat.com/&quot;>home</a></b></font></td>

Basically, the code assigns a default background color along with a color to use when the cursor moves over it. This particular cell points to my home page, with the word &quot;home&quot; as the text link. Using the onclick=&quot;location.href='http://www.codebloat.com/'&quot; code makes the entire cell clickable, as opposed to just the text contained within it. I also tell the browser what cursor style to display when the user mouses over the cell; in this case, it's the standard hand cursor.

Unfortunately, Netscape has lousy support for CSS (cascading style sheets). I haven't used the latest beta builds of version 6, but if Adul says it finally works, that's music to my ears.

Cool, thats the script I have in there...minus the ability to click the whole box...gonna add that now. Thanks guys!

My friend must have 5.xx NS...

 

[zippy]

LOL, nevermind, I already had the ability to click the whole box...i stayed up from 3:30-6:30AM working on it, so I'm running on low fuel and forgot wtf i did.

Zip, have you realized the link in your sig doesn't work? Just thought I'd share in case you haven't seen it.

 

[zippy]

Knight, yes, i know...I'm too lazy to fix my sig...yet I'll stay up till 6:30AM working on a layout that I didn't even have to do at the time...something seriously fuxored there.

How do I do a &quot;text roll-over&quot; so the text changes colors when the mouse goes over it?
