This is strange. I'm using Dreamweaver MX and am on page 149 of Beginning Dreamweaver MX. I have just added a hyperlink to the text which reads, 'The annual chili contest', but the problem is that it only displays (i.e. the rollover link only works) in Internet Explorer. I tried looking under 'options' in Mozilla, but can't see anything that looks like it might make a difference. Is there anything I can do?

Mikael.

Hi Mikael,

Can you show us the code you're using for the roll over?

Hi Imar,

From the page itself:
</tr>
        <tr bgcolor="lightgrey">
          <td class="news-item-date">11/10/02</td>
          <td class="news-item-location">Texas, USA</td>
          <td class="highlights"><a href="http://www.annualchillicontest.com">The
            annual chili contest </a>took part. Contestants from all over the
            world came to create the world's hottest chili.</td>
        </tr>

and the .css file:

h1 {
    color: #FF0000;
    text-align: center;
}
h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
    font-style: italic;
    color: #FF0000;
    text-align: left;
}
.highlights {
    background-color: #CCCCCC;
}
a {
    text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover {
    text-decoration: underline;
}

I hope this is what you wanted,

Mikael

When I hover my mouse over the link to "The annual chili contest", I get an underline in both IE and FireFox. Don't you see that?

Are you sure the CSS file is included correctly? I tried this with the CSS directly in the head section of the page, and found no problem...

Sorry, Imar,

I just did a reboot and it suddenly works fine in both. I should have thought of it before. Thanks for your help.

Mikael

No problem.

Maybe you added the underline statement later, after you initially tried out the page with the CSS file attached? In that case, the style sheet may have been cached by the browser, so it doesn't show any changes.

If that happens again, try Shift+refresh or Ctrl+Refresh in your browser.

Hope this helps,

Imar
