Is there a way to make a link background color change only for certain links on the web site? I have only found ways to make all the links change to show a background when the mouse hovers over it, and I only want it to happen when its over my menu.

Thanks,

Jesse,

Give your menu a specific class/id and use the :hover pseudo-class to make it happen. If you use class="menu" to identify your menu, your CSS will look something like this . . .

Code:

a.menu:hover {
     background-image: url(http://www.yoursite.com/yourimage.gif);
     }

If you use id="menu" it will look like this . . .

Code:

a#menu:hover {
     background-image: url(http://www.yoursite.com/yourimage.gif);
     }

I'm no CSS guru myself but I think this is the correct code to do what you want to do.

Hope this helps.

you're almost right, but if it is the background color that is supposed to be changed, the code i like this:

a.menu {

background-color: #ffffff;

}

a.menu:hover {

background-color: #f1f1f1;

}
