I've been playing with a paging nav, both as text links in css and image rollovers in javascript, then css. At least in Mozilla 5, I'm finding that both a:hover and onMouseOver require mouse movement before firing. So here's the deal: blah.php?page=5 is loaded in my browser window with all content visible (no scrolling necessary)...I roll over, let's say, a "Previous" text or image link (doesn't appear to matter), I click, blah.php?page=4 loads with the navigation loading in the same spot in the browser window, with the mouse pointer still over the "Previous" link. The hover effect will not fire unless I move the pointer (even one pixel). Am I overlooking something obvious here, or is there a workaround, perhaps associated with the onLoad event, that checks to see if the mouse coordinates coincide with an element that has a hover style or onMouseOver event? I haven't experimented with an onClick event yet, but that is not passed to the subsequent loaded page, is it? Which would not solve my problem.
Thanks, Michael
