Mouseover
Hey, I used to remember how to do this but now I forget. How do I make a mouseover so it will change the color of the link when the mouse goes over it? Thanks, a lot.

Parker,
You can try something like this. However, I don't think it will work with NS, just IE.
a.nav:link {color:blue}
a.nav:hover {color:red}
a.nav:active {color:blue}
Some Link

Hi Parker,
For IE there are a number of tried & true methods, including css:
...by defining a class
.over { color:red;text-decoration:underline; ...etc...}
.out { color:blue; text-decoration:none;.....}
Some Page
or within the tag itself:
Some Page
For netscape, however, it appears as though the above css will only get fired with an onClick, not a mouseover/out. In fact, I cannot get netscape do it with a mouseover regardless of whether I use classes, ids, or tags and styles (even netscape's proprietary one --type='text/javascript') or javascript and the DOM. At best, I have been able to set the initial color with a style sheet, but not change it.
You might want to go to the Netscape site and see if there is a solution there.
Sorry
Vinny

How do I tell it no underline on the link?

Again, just for example ...
none; }
A:link { color:#0000ff; font-weight:normal; }
A:visited { color:#0000ff; }
A:active { color:#0000ff; }
A:hover { color:#ff0000; }
