HTML Redirect tag iPage problem?

Click Here To View All Answers...


Quick question... HTML Redirect tag iPage problem? Thanks for any answer. Another question on my mind: Right....

First thing, take a look at my existing code for a set of links:.

<tr>.

<td width="10" valign="top">.

</td>.

<td width="97" height="35" align="left".

Valign="middle".

Onmouseover="this.style.backgroundColor='#66aaff';window.status='Spectral Revolutions - Page Dynamics';return true;".

Onmouseout="this.style.backgroundColor='';window.status='Spectral Revolutions';return true;">.

<p align="left"><a.

Href="hub.php?mod=dynamic_services">PAGE<br />.

DYNAMICS</a></p>.

</td>.

<td width="10" valign="top">.

</td>.

</tr>.

Above is a typical row in my my links table. As you can see it uses the onmouseover and onmouseout event handlers to alter the background colour of the cell before returning it to the default transparency..

(To see it in action, please visit.

Spectral Revolutions - My Site.

).

Although this effect works well, I would like some help with using a background image rather than a colour. (For example, onmouseover, the background image of the cell changes to a semi transparent blue image and then either back to the basic default or a fully transparent image..

So far I've tried alot of things; none of which worked..

I waqs wondering if anyone could help?..

I'm stumped. I'm not so sure what is the right answer. I'll do some poking around and get back to you if I bump into an good answer. You should email the people at iPage as they probably can help you..

Entimp....

It can be done, and also with cross-browser compatibility..

Synchronium....

I cannot access.

Http://www.spectral-revolutions.com.

At all, so I can't see your working script. However, take a look at the.

Photos Page.

At nunzioweb.com. Look at the pic of Nunzio there. Move your mouse on/off the image. Of course, any image can be used, and also as a background image in any table cell that also acts as a link (as you want)..

If you are interested in that script, let me know and I'll post it here. I won't bother now though because I'm uncertain if you would want it..

P.S. try and get your webhost to get spectral-revolutions.com to be accessible. I would be very angry if my webhost, whom I pay very well for their service, allowed as prolonged a downtime as your iPage site has had for the past 4 hours (yes... I've been attempting to access your iPage site on and off for over 4 hours now, to see your working script before I posted here)...

Ok, well, let's forget about the transparency for now. But rolling the background images over....

Background-image: url('URL OF IMAGE').

I'd imagine I'd be using this to rollover the images?.

EG,.

Onmouseover="this.style.background-image: ('URL');".

Or perhaps.

Onmouseover="this.style.background-image='URL';".

Then I could work from that..

I appreciate the help above, but it's not quite what I'm looking for. Apologies for the downtime...

Hehe you are funny. although your iPage site takes 15-20 minutes to load it doesn't work very well in Mozilla. your mouse over on that image does nothing. and entimp is correct, there is nothing that is cross-browser compatibility. just ask Transmothra or search this iPage site as he has gone through that with his site..

Show me the transparent script that is cross browser and I will prove you wrong...

Comment #4

Currently the only way to make translucent content cross-browser compatible is to use a sniffer to detect the platform and deliver specialized code for it. so yes, it can be done... but no, not very easily, and not without cheating..

Wish I could actually help, but I generally tend to keep away from javascript. I don't know it very well, and I don't usually like it much either...
