Changing link color on mouse movement over the link.

If you need to have a link that changes it's color whenever you hover you mouse over it here is a simple code you need to paste on "HEAD" section of your html code.

<style type="text/css">

<!–

A:link { COLOR:red ; TEXT-DECORATION: none; font-weight: normal }

A:hover { COLOR: pink; TEXT-DECORATION: none; font-weight: none }

–>

</style>

 

Explanation on how it works:

 

"A:link" – this part will set what color your links will show on the webpage your are going to create.

"A:hover" – and this part will set what color the link changes to whenever you hover or move your mouse on it.

 

Some other useful codes:

 

"A:active" – this will set the color of the links after being clicked "A:visited" – this will set the color of the link if it had already been clicked."text-decoration" – this would allow you if you want to add underline on a link. Type in "underline" if you want it or "none" if you don't.
