Text Rollover

Dear Macromedia Helpers:
I wanted to ask if there is any way for me to have a roll
over message come up on a text link Besides the one that looks like
a error message with the Yellow triangle? I know that when you do a
image roll over there is a space you can put alternate text but I
could not find a way for the text link I have to have roll over
text? IS there a way to do this? The Text link I have is linked to
a song byte and I wanted to have when the person rolls over it to
state the artists name and ect... Heeelp!!! Thank You
everyone

>I wanted to have when the person rolls over it to state
the
> artists name and ect... Heeelp
you could use the title attribute
<a href="songname.mp3" title="Artist:Whatever
Album:Whatever"
alt="whatever">Song name</a>
The box with yellow triangle is an alert box and would not be
suitable here.
A viewer will have to click Ok each time that box pops up.
You can also make more customized titles using javascript,
some sites use
that.

  • Create an image and text rollover in Dreamweaver?

    I'm wanting an image and text to have a link and then the image and text to change to another image and text automaticly.  Here is a link that I want it to look like.  (local hot spots) Is there a way in Dreamweaver to do it or by inserting HTML code...

    Thanks to any help I can get.

    All depends on what you want. 
    CSS a:hover affects the text/image mouseover state.

  • Problem creating flash text rollover

    I want to create a Flash text rollover using a font that is

  • Image and Text rollover together not working

    Hi,
    I am trying to make a simple image thumbnail rollover with a text rollover at the same time. I would like to have the text able to be linked to different areas of my site to the image which is underneath. However I need to have the text cover the whole image area so that it recognises the rollover.
    I have done my best to make it work in various ways with different effects but not the way I want it.
    Here is the page that has the attempts at what I want.
    http://studiotrulytruly02.businesscatalyst.com/design.html
    The first one on the left works but I cannot keep the text in the same place on rollover.
    The second I have pinned the text box to hold it there but it will not allow the image to have rollover as well.  Also pinning does not work as it means when you scroll down the buttons stay there.
    The third one works but there is an invisible button above text buttons that is aligned with them and taking you to the wrong place. 
    What is the correct way to do this?

    can you check if ur facetime and imessage has complete the activation?
    your current SIM card provides you with international sms function?
    if not maybe u can try with a diff SIM?

  • Text rollover with show/hide layer behavior

    How can I set text to change colors when you roll over it AND
    to have it show/hide other layers at the same time, while still
    keeping the new rollover color?
    For instance, when you scroll over a word in a list, it
    highlights that word, reveals more layers (ie, text and images),
    and all that stays there until you rollover something else
    Im using Dreamweaver 2004 and its been quite a while since
    Ive been able to get into it.
    Thanks!

    Let's say you have the given content, some text in my example
    in a layer identified as layer1.
    <div id="layer1">some text</div>
    In order to set a different font-colour at the mouseover
    event you need to add this code to your css file:
    #layer{
    color:#000000;}
    #layer:hover{
    color:#DDDDDD;}
    According to the code above the some text in the layer will
    be displayed with black and at mouseover event it will be changed
    to silver.
    If you want to hide/show certain text you may use opacity
    style attributum or implement something like the mootools slide
    effect (
    http://demos.mootools.net/Fx.Slide).
    Hope this helps:)

  • Text rollover css

    Hi
    I have this
    <a href="javascript:;" class="rollroll" > Name
    </a>
    and an attached stylesheet but it wont work
    .rollroll
    a:link color: blue; text-decoration: none;
    a:active color: red; text-decoration: none;
    a:visited color: blue; text-decoration: none;
    a:hover color: green; text-decoration: underline;
    I am using a table with 4 cells horizontal with a link in
    each.
    can anyone advise me please
    thanks
    Frankie

    Your rollroll links do not have enough specificity 'oomph' to
    overrule the
    #maincontent link styles. Try this CSS instead of what you
    have -
    <style type="text/css">
    #maincontent {width: 584px;}
    #maincontent a:visited, a:link {
    color: #033000;
    text-decoration: underline;
    #maincontent a:hover {
    color: #990000;
    text-decoration: none;
    #maincontent a.rollroll:link, #maincontent
    a.rollroll:visited,#maincontent
    a:rollroll:active {
    text-decoration:none;
    #maincontent a.rollroll:link, #maincontent a.rollroll:visited
    color:blue;
    #maincontent a.rollroll:active {
    color:red;
    #maincontent a.rollroll:hover {
    color: green;
    text-decoration: underline;
    </style>
    By adding the "#maincontent" to the selctor for the interior
    links, I have
    raised their specificity to the same level as your default
    link rules, and
    since they come LATER in the stylesheet (i.e., closer to the
    element being
    styled), they take precedence.

  • Text rollover resp. master-rollover

    I love the thefactorylondon.com/news layout very much and try to copy some nice funktions of it.
    When you rollover the different news the white background turns white and the white text turns black.
    When I try this in my MUSE project I can change the status of the white backgrounds when rolling over.
    But there's no chance to change the text status when rolling over.
    Have you an idea how to achieve also a text color change when rolling over.
    As far as I can see it is "real" text and no picture.
    Or is there a possibility to generate a (transparent) master-rollover which can control more functions?
    in this fact it should control the change of the backgroundcolour of the fotocollage AND the text colour regardless of rollin over the text OR the fotos.
    Thank you very much in advance for any help.

    GREAT!!! Yeah, it's the "Empty State Button".
    Thank you very much.

  • Slow text rollover transition

    I have rollover text boxes that are set for a fade in and
    fade out transition of .5 seconds each way. The problem is, it
    takes almost a full three seconds for the text to fade in once you
    roll over the area. Have seen this on two different PCs with
    Captivate 3 loaded. Viewing the movie as a SWF.

    Welcome to our community, Bret
    By chance have you changed your Frame Rate? Normally it's 30
    Frames per second. But you see odd behavior sometimes if you change
    it to something different.
    To change the rate, click Edit > Preferences... >

  • Brain dead on adding a simple text rollover...

    Hi there -
    As my title indicates, I'm having an issue. Captivate 8. I have an interface with a set of graphic buttons, and a hidden set of labels associated with the slides. Clicking a button goes to that topic's slide. I want to use an old-fashioned rollover event to show the caption which then disappears on rollout. I'm working in a responsive project. Optimally (and historically) I'd just use the caption in association with the button's rollover state. However, I can't see how to do that in Captivate 8.

    Hello,
    Responsive design is for HTML5 output only. Rollovers are not supported for HTML5, AFAIK. How do you do a rollover on a smartphone? You can check the HTML5 Tracker (Project menu), that will tell you which objects are not supported (was also the case in previous versions).
    Hint/Success/Failure captions are not on rollover, sorry.

  • Menu Text Rollover Possible?

    I am a classical musician, and I'm creating a DVD of my work to send out to managers and potential sponsors. Towards that end, I've put together an iDVD project using the "Reflection Black" Theme provided within iDVD. For the most part, I'm quite happy with the results, however I am concerned that the way I've got my three musical selections laid out is not foolproof from a user navigation point of view. For a button shape, I'm using the leftwards-pointing arrow (from the Bullets sub-menu in the Buttons section). Here's how my menu of video-recorded musical selections is laid out, using the "greater-than" symbol as a stand-in here:
    1. Brahms
    2. Berlioz
    3. Beethoven
    My concern is that when the main screen comes up, the viewer will see these three composer's names, but not necessarily immediately understand how to access the three musical selections. If the user drags the pointer in the precise area of the buttons, they do appear in order, which I think indicates fairly clearly how to make the selection "hot" and thus "selectable". But I'd like users to be able to select the menu items without having to point to such precise spots, or at least find a way to indicate exactly where they should point. In this latter regard, I tried putting a "box" of text underneath the list of composer's names, saying "Click next to composer's names to play selections", however this didn't work well with the way the opening screen of the theme rolls out. The theme roll-out is rather nice; it starts with the video I've put in the drop boxes cascading by, then my name fades into view, and then the composer's names fade into view. But when I include the box of text, it appears on screen right away with the scanning drop boxes, before my name and the composer's names transition in.
    The format I'd like to see, if possible, is for the composer names to change color and/or enlarge when the pointer is rolled over the composer names, like a standard hyper-link in a web page. But any and all ideas and suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
    Tony

    First off, the hyperlinks on web pages are much more advanced than what is allowed in the DVD specs.
    With DVDs you have an overlay that contains the changing part of the buttons, in this case the "greater-than" buttons. The overlay is very limited. There is only two levels of anti-alasing. This means that any sort of curve (type has a lot of curves) is going to come out very "jagged". This is why on DVDs that you might own/rent, they never highlight the text in the button. Typically, you will see either an underline or some sort of simple graphic next to the text. Go rent a movie tonight, any movie, and you will most likely find thats true.
    Now with DVD SP, you can highlight the text, but as mentioned above you really do not want to do that.

  • Simple way to create rollover text?

    I want to ask visitors on my page to enable pop-ups if they click on one of my quicktimes (to decrease load times, I use pop-up windows on my video-heavy pages). I want the text to appear over the still "poster" image of the quicktime when they mouseover it. Is there a simple way to do text rollover? Or do I have to make it into an image (create another jpeg for each "poster" with the text written on it)?
    Here's the site: http://web.me.com/roncutz/roncutz/theatricaltvspots.html
    Thanks in advance.

    Heres' a solution that takes the form into acount :
    <iframe style="margin: 0px auto"
    src="../../../roncutz/" width="322" height="240" frameborder="0" scrolling="no">
    </iframe>
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

    window.open("http://homepage.mac.com/roncutz/.Public/MonstersVsAliens.m4v","_blank","

    </script>
    <form style="position: absolute; left: 45%; margin-top: -35px;"><input type="button" value="PLAY">

    It would be safer to use a webpage to display the popup movie. A MIME file error exist on the MobileMe server when you either upload your movie from the Finder to the Sites folder on MobileMe or if you upload with Cyberduck.
    The movie will download in Safari instead of being displayed.

  • Pop-Up Text Box on Hover of Text

    I've been looking for a solution on how to make a box of text pop-out (but not into a seperate window, just to sort of appear) when someone hovers/puts their mouse on a line of text.
    The box would disappear when they move their mouse off the text... or is their a way to make it appear in it's own box if they do actually click on it too?
    I know there is the rollover image function but I can't figure out how to manipulate it to do what I need.
    Thanks in advance!

  • Pop up text boxes on mouseovers

    I'm looking for an easy way (and the easiest tool to use
    between Dreamweaver, Fireworks, and Flash [and I'm guessing
    'Fireworks']...or maybe Flash---I have Studio MX2004) to create not
    a 'pop-menu', but 'a Pop-Up TEXT box' on a mouseover event.
    For example, please perform the following steps to see what I
    would like to do:
    1)Google 'Product Demos'
    2)Click on 'Blackberry' link at top of list 3)A selection of
    product thumbnails appears...click on any product link 4)A Flash
    presentation loads....Click on 'Interactive Views' in the lower
    right-hand corner.
    5)Go to the upper left-hand corner and click on 'Included
    Applications' to see the text pop-ups activated when you mouse over
    parts of a graphic (in this case, each icon)....AND THEN...click on
    the next one in the list, 'Handheld Features' to see text pop up
    boxes activated once you mouse over the textual captions (or
    pointers).
    This is the effect I would like to achieve when a user mouses
    over a section of a figure or illustration, or over a textual
    caption itself.
    Thanks!

  • Cell border and text buttons.

    Dear members:
    I am a beginner and have just started using Dreamweaver.
    After a few attempts and some reading I decided to post a message
    with questions on a couple of problems I haven't been able to find
    answers for.
    The first one relates to table cell formating. I have tried
    to set border properties for individual table cells but haven't
    been able to. I would like to be able to set individual border
    thickness and border color values for different cells in a table.
    How is this done ? I have selected the cells I wish to format but
    the property window shows color but not border thickness value. Any
    ideas ?
    The second issue relates to text rollover buttons. I wish to
    create simple navigational buttons in a web site created from text
    placed in table cells. The text should be created as one color
    (gray) for the "up" state and then change to a different color as
    the state changes to "over" and "down". I have looked at Flash
    buttons but they are not exactly what I want and don't offer the
    option I am looking for. Flash text also doesn't allow me to set
    behaviors as most behaviors appear grayed and non-selectable. How
    can I create rollover buttons from simple text that changes color
    and style (normal, bold, italic) with state changes ?
    Any help will be very appreciated. I apologize if these
    questions seem basic but I am beginning to work with Dreamweaver.
    Thank you in advance,
    Joseph Chamberlain

  • CSS Disjointed Text Rollovers help?

    Hi All
    I am new to the site and have a question to ask,
    I have been playing around with the demo created by Nancy O, for css disjointed text rollover. What i would like to find out is, once i have created the rollover and i hover over it, the text in the window is all active. is there a way to "de-activate that text? so once i have created it all, have the "read more" on my page, click on it and the rollover opens. i have say for example three paragraphs, but my cursor shows that the whole window is active. i want to change that so that there might only be a little image to say close and that the cursor goes back to normal within that window.
    It sounds simple if i think about it but cannot get it to work.
    This is the demo i have been paying around with. http://alt-web.com/DEMOS/CSS-Disjointed-Text-Rollover.shtml#
    any help would be greatly appreciated.
    please let me know if i need to give any more info.
    Thank
    Craig S

    Instead of CSS disjointed rollovers, sounds like you need show/hide layers
    http://alt-web.com/DEMOS/Show-Hide-Layers.html
    Or perhaps an accordion panel like this extension from Project Seven
