Cr0n0 Bipolar (III) Inmate From: NyC Insane since: Jun 2000	posted 07-10-2000 00:08 ok thanks I actually got it before you posted your message and mine looks pretty similar to yours. My next question involves the editing of a code. here is the code...<!-- A:link {text-decoration: none; color: #FFFFFF } A:hover {text-decoration: bold; color: #808080} A:visited {text-decoration: none} A:active {text-decoration: underline} --> what this is supposed to do is make a link change color when you put ur mouse over it. Now what i want it to do is just underline it. I tried editing it but its not working. What do i do?

Slime Lunatic (VI) Mad Scientist From: Massachusetts, USA Insane since: Mar 2000	posted 07-10-2000 00:18 may i make a suggestion? don't use window.status="". instead use window.defaultStatus="". Then, when the mouse moves over a link, the browser can change the status bar text for the user, and will change it back immediately after. People will probably like that more. That property, for those concerned, should be supported just as widely as window.status is.

in the body tag, do this:

<body yadda="yadda" onLoad="window.status='Whatever you want to say....'; return true">

then for links, do this:

<a href="whatever" onMouseover="window.status='your message'; return true" onMouseout="window.status='whatever it should say when nothing is being moused over'; return true">

You sure do, infact, if you go yadda.yadda.unbobchadidllia you get a random magic effect that turns your computer into gold. (I've yet to figure out whats random about it..)

Actually, no, yadda is supposed ot represent all the stuff that would already have in your body tage, like "alink="FFFFFF" or whatever...

Put this right after your <body> tag:

<STYLE type="text/css">
A:link{color:#FFFFFF; text-decoration:none <img border=0 align=absmiddle src="http://www.ozones.com/forum/wink.gif"> A:active{color:#FFFFFF;text-decoration:none;}
