Topic: css :hover for td (Page 1 of 1)

Hello,
I have a td... when I hover the mouse over it, I'd like to change the color of the td. Here is what i have:

td.configure_meet_left:hover {
background-color:green;
}

In english:
" A TD with class of 'configure_meet_left' when hover, set background color=green "

Is this correct syntax? (doesn't work for me yet)

That should work, and it does in both Mozilla and Opera, but IE doesn't get it right. There are ways to make it work in both Mozilla+Opera and IE.

After some quick Googling I would the following article that might be of interest: http://www.xs4all.nl/~peterned/csshover.html

New thing to learn - IE Behaviours (.htc)

Okay a bit more complicated a solution then I was hoping for. A solution none the less. Wow, way cool menu system there. I guess a good reason to learn behaviours.

Thanks for the tips!

Well, behaviors are IE-only, and the only reason we use them in this case is to work (or hack) around IE's shortcomings in CSS support.

I'd spend more time learning proper CSS, than this IE junk.

fyi,

this IE junk is meant to let you use proper CSS without having to think about IE's shortcomings. And it's IE only because only IE needs fixing. No need to even look at the htc, just hook it up. Please don't confuse that with oldskool IE only junk.
