The only cross browser, and I would say not very workable solution for text mouseovers is to use layers for the different events.

Actually I would advise using external style sheets.

Here's an example of what your overall code should look like with the style sheets:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<STYLE TYPE="text/css">

</STYLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<A HREF="whatever.link">Whatever Link</A>
</BODY>
</HTML>

You don't need any special code for your links if you have the style information in your <HEAD>.

The <style>...</style> should go between your <head></head> tags.

Compocalypse:

I don't think you can change the color of normal text onMouseOver... The example you gave <i>was</i> a link... You can change the color of a link onMouseOver using style sheets.

Can a person use mouseovers for text? I mean, how hard can it be?

<a href="whereeveryouwant/samplepage.html" onmouseover="<font color=green><u>" onmouseout="<font color=red></u>">font name</a>

Won't that (or something like that) work ?

Everything inside the <Style> and </Style> tags goes after your <Body> tag and then your links just go wherever you would have put them normally.

If you want to know about the abilities/capabilities of NS5 check out www.mozilla.org They should at least call it Netscape 8.5.

Where do I put the link text? In the "text/css" part?

Don't think it is possible. All NS will see is a red non-underlined link. Doesn't recognize the hover. Maybe in V.5...LOL

They'll probably just add some worthless add-on software and call it new and improved. Maybe a newer version of Instant Messenger
