Need help with hover

Here is my code

[Daily Sparring]

I want to add hover etc to this? WHat is the necessary procedure from here and what do I call the class (meaning, is it different then 'nav')

.nav {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
font-variant: small-caps;
color: #0000FF;
}

Thanks

I think you want something like this:

.nav a {
}
and
.nav a:hover {
}

Is that what you ment?

possibly? Do I then just label the <td class"nav" and it will take care of the rest?

Unfortunately, it's not quite that simple. While Firefox, Mozilla, NS and other compliant browsers will recognize the :hover pseudoclass for many elements, IE, the most prolific (and prolifically bad) browser on the market does not. IE only allows :hover on <a>nchor tags.

That means that if you want your hover effects to work on all browsers, you can only apply them to links. In the example above, if you set up a css rule...

.nav a:hover {
WHATEVER
}

Then added class="nav" to your <td>, the hover would effect any LINKS inside the table cell, but not the table cell itself, and would have NO effect in a table cell without a link in IE browsers.

The only way I know around this IE shortcoming involves javascript, and is therefore a tad unreliable.
