Topic: Applying hyperlink to a css style (Page 1 of 1)

if a part of text is selected with a class style eg <p class="typefooter2"> is it possible that it has a default hyperlink attached to it?

Basically, if i have some text on a page, eg. 'Back to Top' and it has a class style applied to it (as above) can it automatically be a hyperlink, eg. #top


.typefooter2 {
font-size: 9px;
font-family: Arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #0098BE;
text-align : right;
}

ANY help would be appreciated!!

no.

elvisedge: CSS only affects the presentation layer of the pages, while what you want lays in the behavioral or even structural layer. Why don't you simply do: <p class="typefooter2"><a href="#top" alt=""> ... </a></p> ?

It is important to reiterate Poi's point.

CSS exists for one purpose, and one purpose only: STYLE. As in visual presentation.

Links are a matter of structure. HTML exists for the purpose of structure - that's what it is...a set of specifically defiend tags to define the structure of a document.

So no, you can't - and even if you could, it would be extremely unwise.

Thanks very much, just had to check.
