Highlight text Box on rollover

[timmytots]

Could somebody tell me how to do this:

When you hover over the text (underneath ntligent thinking) there's a green highlight. Is this done in html and what's the code/how etc?

Do you change the background color?

background-color: #AD4617;



Cheers.

This has been done with CSS.
example
.purple {
color: #50155A;
}
a.purple:link, a.purple:active, a.purple:visited {
color: #50155A;
text-decoration: none;
}
a.purple:hover {
color: white;
background-color: #56A02C;
}

Hope this helps. Let me know if you need me to elaborate.

I managed to do it.

However, i've set it so that visited links have a line through but i want it so that when you hover over - the line goes.

don't seem to be able to do this.

It's ok i've worked that out now too. didn't realise it worked in a priority fashion whereby whatever code is last takes precedence. now i do, cheers!
