And yet another question asked that has NO technical terms in it at all![nbsp][nbsp]:D[nbsp][nbsp]I'd like to have my pages set up so that when someone has their mouse on top of a link, that link changes color BEFORE they click on it (not a visited link color thing).[nbsp][nbsp]Is there an HTML code for that, and can it be one "sentence" I put in the script so it does that for ALL the links on the page?[nbsp][nbsp]TIA again!

The hover effect is done with style sheets (and doesn't work, by the way, in some of the older browsers). A fairly in-depth overview of style sheets can be found at <a href=&quot;http://www.hwg.org/resources/faqs/cssFAQ.html&quot;>http://www.hwg.org/resources/faqs/cssFAQ.html</-a>

You can also look at a real simple setup up if you view my source code at http://www.plazare.com/mjpankey. I usually link to the style sheet itself, but thought I'd put that one up there for an example.
