My CSS has , in the following order:
B, STRONG
{
color: #333;
}
A
{
color: #00ae9d !important;
border-bottom: dotted 1px #00ae9d;
text-decoration:none;
}
But when I hold a link, it comes up gray with green dots. What do I need to do so that bolded items come up dark gray, and linked bolded items come up green with dots? Is there a way to rank each rule?
The behavior will depend on the order that you're setting your tags
<b>One</b>
is not the same as
<b>One</b>
Check this jsfiddle
to give color to a <a> you need to do follow LoVe HAte rule:
L(link)o*V*(visited)e H(hover)A(active)te
a:link {
color: #00ae9d;
}
a:visited {
color: #999;
}
a:hover {
color: #900;
}
a:active {
color: #555;
}
a:focus {
color: #900;
}
off course you can group them, but you have to keep the same order.
a:link, a:visited {
color: #00ae9d;
}
a:hover, a:active, a:focus {
color: #900;
}

Using html 5, I have an anchor element that contains block elements (e.g., p elements). I want the text within the p elements to change on hover—they don't.
p {
color: #222222;
}
a:link {
color: inherit;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:visited {
color: inherit;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover {
color: red !important;
text-decoration: none;
}
<p>This changes color on hover.</p>
<a href="test.htm">
<p>This doesn't change color on hover.</p>
</a>
In my case, there are numerous elements within the anchor element and I can't change the CSS styles of those elements (e.g., I can't change the hover selector for p elements).
Thanks!
p won't inherit the hover color from an a tag around since it has its own color parameter (thanks to #BoltClock). But you can use a:hover, a:hover p { ... } as a selector to get what you want:
p {
color: #222222;
}
a:link {
color: inherit;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:visited {
color: inherit;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover,
a:hover p
{
color: red !important;
text-decoration: none;
}
<p>This changes color on hover.</p>
<a href="test.htm">
<p>This also changes color on hover.</p>
</a>
Try this, this will change the hover selector for all the p element inside an anchor element
p {
color: #222222;
}
a:link {
color: inherit;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:visited {
color: inherit;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover {
color: red !important;
text-decoration: none;
}
a p:hover{
color: red;
}
<p>This changes color on hover.</p>
<p>This doesn't change color on hover.</p>
I'm trying to figure out how to change the hover color, but only when the text has a link
This is the css code, but it changes color with or without links
h1, h2, h3, h4 {
color:#3F3F3F;
}
h1:hover, h2:hover, h3:hover, h4:hover {
color:#000000;
}
This will depend on how you have structured the links.
There are two basic varieties.
a) Links inside headings. In which case:
a {
color: red;
text-decoration: none;
}
h1 a:hover {
color: blue;
}
<h1>Link Inside Heading</h1>
b) Headings inside links. In which event:
a {
color: red;
text-decoration: none;
border: 1px solid grey;
display: inline-block;
}
a:hover {
color: green;
}
/* or */
h1 {
background: #c0ffee;
}
a h1:hover {
color: pink;
}
<h1>Heading Inside Link</h1>
Sample:
h1 a:hover, h2 a:hover, h3 a:hover, h4 a:hover {
color:grey;
}
The anwser you are looking for is simple:
h1 a:hover, h2 a:hover, ect {
color:#000000;
}
You stated that the header when hovered should change color, which is not what you want.
Now it says that a header which contains a link (a) should change color when it is hovered. ;)
I have two divs in a web page (say view_1 and view_2). I want the styles of the links in each div to be different. Let's say the styles of the links are as follows:
style of links in div view_1:
a:link {
color: #CB4C2F;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:visited {
color: #CB4C2F;
}
a:active,
a:hover {
color: #B60A00;
}
style of links in div view_2:
a:link {
color: #B5B5B5;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:visited {
color: #808080;
}
a:active,
a:hover {
color: #FFFFFF;
}
In the page, I want to specify only the div in use. I do not want to specify a style for the links; the links should adopt the styles from the div in which they exist. How may this be accomplished?
Add classes to your div's
View_1
.view_1 a:link {
color: #CB4C2F;
text-decoration: none;
}
.view_1 a:visited {
color: #CB4C2F;
}
.view_1 a:active,
.view_1 a:hover {
color: #B60A00;
}
View_2
.view_2 a:link {
color: #B5B5B5;
text-decoration: none;
}
.view_2 a:visited {
color: #808080;
}
.view_2 a:active,
.view_2 a:hover {
color: #FFFFFF;
}
Is there a way of styling links using a id or a class without having to create a new selector for each individual element? for example
something like this or close to this would be preferable
#logo {
a: link {color: black}
a: visited{color: black}
a: hover{color: black}
}
However, the above syntax does not work instead all i can find is
#logo a:hover {
color: black;
}
#logo a:visited {
color: white
}
I feel like there's an easier way than this.
Heres how to do it to all links
I believe it should work:
#logo a:link,
#logo a:visited,
#logo a:hover {
color: black;
}
Not all browser support the above methodology of separating the tag styles with class or ID when you are dealing with different style in CSS with tag in single page.
One can follow below method:
**If using ID with Field**
a:link#myID {
color: green;
background-color: transparent;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:visited#myID {
color: pink;
background-color: transparent;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover#myID {
color: red;
background-color: transparent;
text-decoration: underline;
}
a:active#myID {
color: yellow;
background-color: transparent;
text-decoration: underline;
}

**If using Class with Field**
a:link.myClass {
color: green;
background-color: transparent;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:visited.myClass {
color: pink;
background-color: transparent;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover.myClass {
color: red;
background-color: transparent;
text-decoration: underline;
}
a:active.lx {
color: yellow;
background-color: transparent;
text-decoration: underline;
}

Not directly in css, but there are some projects that extend css
Check out sass:
http://sass-lang.com
I also believe current CSS syntax is not all that optimal. My personal choice is to go with something like LESS where you get much more intuitive and compact syntax to style your work.
With pure CSS you must specify each pseudo-selector but you can group them to apply the same style attributes;
#logo a:link,
#logo a:visited,
#logo a:hover {
color: black;
}
Beware that The order of link pseudo-classes matters.
Sorry for my poor english, I'm french !
The first li is already in red, but I want classical rollover effect (only css)
<ul>
<li>1111</li>
<li>2222</li>
<li>3333</li>
</ul>
with
li:first-child { color: red; }
li:hover { color: red; }
ul:hover li:first-child { color: black; }
li:first-child:hover { color: red; }
The last line doesn't work : When my mouse is over 1111, he becomes black instead of stay red.
Look here please : http://jsfiddle.net/cP5rQ/3/
And thank you for advance.
You need to increase the specificity of your last rule enough so that it becomes at least equal to the specificity of the third rule; it will then override the third rule and the item will become red as it should.
Do this by writing the last rule as
ul:hover li:first-child:hover { color: red; }
See it in action.
This does the trick. Is this what you wanted?
li:first-child { color: red; }
ul:hover li:first-child { color: black; }
li:hover { color: red; }
ul:hover li:first-child:hover { color: red; }
