Different link mouse overs in different cells

Hello everybody! I had a question (Like everyone else in this forum)
I am working on a new version of my 4-H website (With external stylesheets).
I use a CSS mouseover thingy (On text links) and I just wanted to know if I could use a different mouseover on other links in a different cell.
I'd like to have ALL my css in the external stylesheet (Which makes building the site easier on me);)

Thank you!Use classes. (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/selector.html#class-html">http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/selector.html#class-html</a><!-- m -->)I already use something like that...
I specify mouse over, link, a link, a visited and all that, but I just want it to change in a different cell.
Can I use that one thing where I say the id in the html <div id="cheese"><a href=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"cheese.htm"></div> And then I do this in the external stylesheet:
#cheese
{
color: #FF0000;
}

Would that work on links, but instead of saying the color red can I just specify the mouseover stuff just in that cell? I hope I don't sound too confusing.So when you mouseover something in one cell you want something to change in another?

If so, then you will need to use JavaScript for that. I could help you do that if you posted an example of the code you want to do this with.if i understand what you're looking for the <div id="whatever"></div>

should work, but if you want the page to validate you're better off to use classes
because id assumes uniqueness


for example:
.class foo a{
color: #FFFFFF;
}So when you mouseover something in one cell you want something to change in another?No. I want styles to vary from cell to cell.

if i understand what you're looking for the <div id="whatever"></div>s should work, but if you want the page to validate you're better off to use classes because id assumes uniquenessI have only known CSS for about a week. I use MSFrontpage to generate it for me (& it don't work so good.)Lose FrontPage.

Is this what you want?
#cheese a:hover
{
color: #0000ff;
}Dude, Kravvitz! That is exactly what I needed! Cool!
I'll put that in my page right away!
Thankyou so much!

(Sorry, but I don't think I'll be loosing FrontPage anytime soon... I kinda don't want to fork out 800 bucks for Dreamweaver...)You're welcome. :)

Who said anything about Dreamweaver?

I don't use or recommend either.

The editors listed in the first section of this page are the type that I recommend. (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=CssEditors">http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=CssEditors</a><!-- m -->)Really? What do you use? I've only been using Frontpage for about three months now... Before that I was using Notepad (My deep dark opensource past):)Don't use WYSIWYGs at all. None of them are very good. HTML and CSS coding isn't that tough to learn. Invest the time to learn it and save yourself a pile of $ and headaches.What does using Notepad have to do with open-source?

Currently I use Syn Text Editor (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://syn.sourceforge.net/">http://syn.sourceforge.net/</a><!-- m -->).When you build a site with notepad, you are doing it ALL open-source... (As in you see the code as you build--unlike FrontPage or Dreamweaver which displays the page you are building as you build it without the opensource code--much nicer)Yep -- thought so. You don't understand the term "open source". This is a good explanation of it. (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source</a><!-- m -->)

What you mean is WYSIWYG vs. text code editing, not open source vs. closed source.

If you find code ugly, then I sugest that you find a new career.OK, my bad.
I don't find code ugly. I learned HTML using notepad. Wouldn't saying source-code work?
Oh, two more things...
1. I don't have a job. I'm 16 and extremely lazy.
2. HP is better than Dell.text code -- source code -- I would say they mean the same thing.

What does HP vs. Dell have to do with this?Nothing at all... Saying "just one more thing" and then making a numbered list with only one number is kinda dumb. I needed to put a second number in and I remember that you posted in Dell vs HP.*chuckles* Just one problem with that -- I haven't posted in the Dell vs. HP thread.Whoops....

THe question is what does Dell vs Hp not got 2 do with it :cool:
