Flickering pixy-rollover links in IE, fine in FF

http://www.friendsofwoodhousegrove.co.uk/friendsnew/index.htm
This is the Pixy-style rollover technique with a sliding
image - in the left hand navigation and on the shopping bag links.
How do I stop it flickering in IE because it's doing a round trip
to the server to request a new image even though all I'm doing is
changing the alignment of the image? It really slows things down
when you run a mouse over it but I'd rather do this than complex
swapping of images with javascript.

In the IE conditional comment for the sidebar, change the margin rule:
.thrColFixHdr #sidebar2, .thrColFixHdr #sidebar1 { padding-top: 30px; }
to
.thrColFixHdr #sidebar2, .thrColFixHdr #sidebar1 { padding-top: -30px; }
That brings the pictures further up the page to line up with the top of the content on the right.

Broken Rollover Links in Safari

I'm having some trouble with rollover links in a facebook app I'm building.
In Safari 3.0.4 the links become blue squares with question marks after they are clicked or rolled over.
They work fine in Safari 2.0.4 and in Firefox and IE.
I've found some other threads here and elsewhere that deal with this topic, but have yet to find a conclusive solution.
Can anyone help me with this?
Many thanks

One problem is that you are using an early version of Safari and it wasn't mature like other browsers. The other is that you are using a "dated" Mac OS X when web designers are moving to more recent technology. You will see that Netscape and Microsoft have stopped developing their browsers for the Mac.

Rollover links

Hi, I'm quite new to this but do have some knowledge of
Frontpage.
I'm trying in DW to create rollover links, easy when going to
a URL but I can't seem to make a rollover link if I use behaviors
to "open browser page" the link works fine but does not rollover to
a different colour.
Any advice as to what I'm doing wrong would be appreciated.
Thanks

Show us your code, please. DW is the antithesis to FP when it
comes to
'smoke and mirrors' and HTML. In truth, everything is
dependent on the code
on the page. DW makes no attempt to mask that. FP, on the
other hand, goes
to great lengths to do so. That being the case, we'd need to
see your page
to give you advice.

How to activate lightbox from a second rollover link?

I am trying to active my lightbox from a second rollover link and do not know how to do it. I been looking for hours to find the right answer and the closest thing that made any sense was someone saying to do this..
This is commonly caused by a conflict between scripts. Check your body tag and look for an onload attribute. Example:
<body onload="MM_preloadImages(‘/images/menu_on.gif’)…;">
A quick fix to this problem is to append the initLightbox() to the onload attribute as so:
<body onload="MM_preloadImages(‘/images/menu_on.gif’)…;initLightbox()">
Sounds simple enough but the problem is my 'body onload' attitubute in my HTML seems to be uneditable for some reason so I am unable to test if this works or not. Can someone please help me as I am new to dreamweaver and this is my first website. Here is where is sits in my code - not sure if that will help.
thanks

Rollover links don't work! iweb 08

I've added a few rollover links to my text and they don't work when I upload the html to my non-mobileme server. I don't see any of my rollover picture sources in the code, but I don't know where or how to add them... Here is the code:
<area href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=Sign%20Me%20Up!" title="Sign Me Up!"
onmouseout="IMmouseout('shapeimage_7', '0');" shape="rect" onmouseover="IMmouseover('shapeimage_7', '0');" coords="356, 88, 534, 110" /><area href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=" title="Send Love to Kay" onmouseout="IMmouseout('shapeimage_7', '1');" shape="rect" onmouseover="IMmouseover('shapeimage_7', '1');" coords="357, 154, 533, 176" /><area href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=" title="Send Love to Joseph" onmouseout="IMmouseout('shapeimage_7', '2');" shape="rect" onmouseover="IMmouseover('shapeimage_7', '2');" coords="346, 176, 544, 198" /><area href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=" title="Book Us" onmouseout="IMmouseout('shapeimage_7', '3');" shape="rect" onmouseover="IMmouseover('shapeimage_7', '3');" coords="339, 242, 551, 264" /></map>

What's the URL of the problem page?

Rollover Link that displays a message, is there a way to do that in Acrobat?

Hello,
Is there a way to create rollover links that display a pop message in the PDF itself? I do not want a separate browser window to pop up, or a link to another PDF page, I just want a bubble, box, or an image to pop up when you rollover a word in the PDF itself.
Thanks,
MG

Post your question in the forum for Adobe Acrobat.

Rollover link buttons

Hey guys,
I was wondering wether there was a way to create rollover
link graphics the same way as text links ie.
link/active/hover/visited. I want to create link buttons with
graphics and need the different 'rollover' states (but dont want to
use Flash) as I want pure HTML/CSS - is there a way round to do it
or should I stick to good old fashioned text links, which I'm
trying not to? Many thanks.

Make the graphics the background image for the <a>
tags, and use the hover
pseudo-class to do the rollover to a new background image.
You can see that in the menu here -

Rollover links not working

i'm a newbie to DW3 (not 4) and I'm constructing my first site. I've used the insert rollover dialog box to place the initial link graphic and then the one to be seen in rollover state. I've chek'd "preload rollover image" and pointed the URL to the proper file inside my site folder. There are 7 of these rollover instances, 2 work and 5 don't yet they're all constructed the same way at the same time! When I don't use the rollover technique and just add one graphic as a link they all work fine!
I've deleted all the rollovers and completely reconstructed the page's rollovers and still the same result on the same rollovers.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Tony

Hi Tony,
The answer, as always, is in your code. Can you upload your page and dependant files to remote server and post a URL here so we can see what have done so far?
My best guess without seeing your code is that you have applied the rollover states to something other than links???? Or you have some other mal-formed code somewhere in your page that is tripping you up.
Use the on-line validation tools below my sig to check your code and fix any reported errors.

My website in firefox browser does not disply the you tube or facebook links/feeds, shows fine in IE

sorry - i've tried half a dozen times to load screenshots of 'the problem' nothing would load, not a word doc with the screenshots, not pngs, not jpgs, and trying to load actually crashed firefox at one point so - here's the problem but no supporting images...
my website: www.pfment.com on the right panel has on top a you tube button, then a facebook feed and last, a place to subscribe to tipsheets. all was fine - i do not know when they stopped showing (in the ff browser) to be clear, the yt and fb parts no longer show at all, and the tipsheet subscribe is on top. if i select view in ie tab, it's still a no show, however, if i open the ie browser, chrome, etc, it shows correctly.
i have emptied cache and cookies, no help.
ideas? suggestions?
thanks!
cyd
hmm, just tried to do the automatically add troublehooting info but it said no can do - problems at your end....will see if manual will work.

sorry - we've been working on the website over the weekend so it isn't the same anymore because the person working on it already changed the facebook feed to some text and told me that we'll see about making it the way it was later, nevertheless, i absolutely do have screenshots- they simply would not load on the page to post the initial question.
in the ff browser neither the yt widget or the fb 'feed' were showing, but the ie browser had them correctly displayed. apologies because as of right this minute the site won't look like that in any browser - with the messing about of the weekend it currently shows as in the 3rd screenshot - i put the windows next to each other and captured just the relevant part - on the left side is ie showing the yt widget and text for a fb link, but on the ff side, there's still no yt widget, it does show the text but ultimately the idea is to get it back to what it looks like in the second shot of the ie browser.
i hope i didn't confuse things -
and thank you VERY much for any help (i've looked at the question for websites don't appear as they should but clearing cache and cookies didn't help)

Rollover link problem

http://westmemphisstorage.com/rollover.html
This site is up and operational, but the client wants to change how his customers see the "account login" and "reserve a unit links." He has asked for buttons. I made some buttons and got them in place with the idea of creating a link and having the background image change on rollover via CSS.
Thus far, my efforts have been a dismal failure. I originally built this site with tables before I learned how to build with CSS. So I added a couple of divs over the main content table in this test file to house the rollovers. He is happy with the appearance. I have links in the main menu on the active pages of the site, but my guy wants the big buttons.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Jie

You need to use an 'unordered list' <ul> to contain the buttons (see below). Give each <li> an identity 'id' as shown below, "logIn" and "reserveUnit"
<div id="nav">
<ul>
<li id="logIn"><a href="account.html"></a></li>
<li id="reserveUnit"><a href="unit.html"></a></li>
</ul>
</div>
Next add the following css to your style sheet:
#nav ul {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 290px;
#nav li {
float: left;
list-style: none;
width: 135px;
margin: 0 10px 0 0;
padding: 0;
#nav #logIn a {
display: block;
width: 135px;
height: 25px;
background-color:#639;
background-image: url(logIn_1.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
text-align: center;
#nav #logIn a:hover {
background-color: #CF0;
background-image: url(logIn_2.gif);
#nav #reserveUnit a {
display: block;
width: 135px;
height: 25px;
background-color: #0F0;
background-image: url(reserveUnit_1.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
text-align: center;
#nav #reserveUnit a:hover {
background-color:#F96;
background-image: url(reserveUnit_2.gif);
Use background images for the buttons applied to the anchor <a> tags as shown in the above css #nav #logIn a, #nav #logIn a:hover Make sure the <a> css is set to the width and height of the button, which is currently 135px x 25px.
Repeat the use of background images for #nav #reserveUnit a, #nav #reserveUnit a:hover as shown above.
You can delete the background colors as these are only there to give some visual guidance whilst setting the images.
Finally remove the two css selector styles shown below from your css as these are now redundant if you follow the instructions above. Leaving them in the stylesheet may cause conflicts.
#container #nav a {
     font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
     font-size: 0.9em;
     font-weight: bold;
     text-decoration: none;
     color: #000;
     display: block;
     width: 135px;
     float: left;
     height: 25px;
     text-align: center;
     line-height: 1.8em;
     border: 1px solid #000;
     margin-right: .5em;
     background: #EAD102;
#container #nav a:hover {
     font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
     font-size: 0.9em;
     font-weight: bold;
     text-decoration: none;
     color: #000;
     display: block;
     width: 135px;
     float: left;
     height: 25px;
     text-align: center;
     line-height: 1.8em;
     border: 1px solid #000;
     margin-right: .5em;
     background: #E4533E;

Disjointed Rollover Link

Hi,
I'm not sure if this is even remotely possible using solely HTML and CSS.
The idea is that I have a disjointed Rollover with the OnMouseOut for Image Restore deleted.
Then in the rollover there will be 2 different links to click.
So in essence
Mouseover Object 1 > Rollover 1 Pops up with 2 Different links
MouseOut Object 1 > Rollover 1 stays
Rollover 1 Link gets clicked and takes user to another page.
There's a good chance I could of described this better...
Anyway, Thanks in advance!

Thanks -
This is the code you posted, but it shows no code to accomplish your rollover

Since you want clickable links, you might try show/hide behavior

Dreamweaver CC Library Item with rollover link produces two body tags. Why?

I have a library item which is used in two pages and works correctly if it does not contain a rollover arrow with a link taking you to the top of the library item. This produces the following near the top of each of the containing pages:
</head>
<body class="indexpage">

<p><a id="top"></a></p>
Note that the Library Item does not itself have a <body> tag in this original, working version.
The problem arises when I insert an image rollover with a link up to #top (which is defined as above).
First, the Library Item has the following near its top:
<script ...>
... various functions to handle the rollover
</script>
<body onLoad="MM_preloadImages('../images/uparrowred2.gif')">
<p><a id="top"></a></p>
Secondly, the containing pages now have the following near the top:
</head>
<body class="indexpage" onLoad="MM_preloadImages('images/uparrowred2.gif)">

<script ...>
... various functions to handle the rollover
</script>
<body onLoad="MM_preloadImages('../images/uparrowred2.gif')">
<p><a id="top"></a></p>
It can be seen (shown in red) that the Library Item has correctly transferred the onLoad instruction to the containing page's <body> tag and at the same time altered the address of the GIF image from '../images/xxx.gif' to 'images/xxx.gif'. [The root folder with the various html pages has a number of subfolders including 'images' and 'Library']. But now, unfortunately, the containing pages have two <body> tags with the second one pointing to the wrong location for the GIF image.
Would someone please explain what is going on. I can think of three possibilities: (1) I may be doing something really stupid, (2) there may be a bug in Dreamweaver CC or (3) Library Items may not be allowed to contain anything "complicated" like a rollover. I did see a very old (2007) discussion in this forum suggesting that Library Items were rather limited in what they could contain, but over the intervening six years I would have expected things to have improved.

Thank you, but in that case I'm not sure I understand the purpose of Library Items. Before I added the Library Item, there was nothing to preload. When I add a rollover to the Library Item, Dreamweaver creates the preloader instruction within the Library Item. Then when I include the Library Item in an html page, Dreamweaver controls where the preloader is put.
Do I then need to manually edit what Dreamweaver has done? In this instance it would have been almost as quick to have ignored the use of a Library Item and copied and pasted the relevant code into the two pages and manually created the revised <body> tag with a preloader. In my relative inexperience with Dreamweaver, I just thought that using a Library Item in multiple pages would save me some effort when I wanted to change the content of the Library Item. As I said, the Library Item worked OK until I added a rollover within it.

Rollover Link Colors

Hi, I want to have a rollover color for certain links while a
different color for other links. I just don't know how to do this
all I can do is set one rollover color for all links! Is it
possible to have different colors? Many thanks.

I just ran a software update for Java and MacBook Pro SMC, now my Mini Display Port to HDMI TV is not working. The TV is flickering. The Mac Display is fine.

I was just watching / streaming TV off Safari on my actual TV.
I'm using a Mini-Display Port to HDMI cable for the connection to the external display.
Software update popped-up and said there was an update for Java and for SMC.
I ran the update and upon the computer restarting, my external display (my TV) is no longer working. It is now flickering.
It won't work in Mirroring or set up as an extended display.
I've reset SMC / PRAM / Safe Mode / Even restored from a Time Machine backup (From before the updates were done).
What could it be?!

I keep saying this over and over, in the hope that people who do a search will find it. Apple cannot possibly test for or be reponsible for the bazillion combinations of adapter, cables, and TV's out there. The only monitors that are 100% guaranteed to work with the MacBook Pro are the Cinema Displays and Thunderbolt Displays, because, they're made by Apple. They're expensive, but they work perfectly.
My guess is that you bought a cheap MDP to HDMI cable, or have a defective one. From my reading of these boards over the past few months, cheap cables have a high failure rate. And the regular priced ones have only a slightly less of one. Try a new one. Make sure you do not damage the Thunderbolt port.
