| I've created a menu using icons. When I create links with them I don't have the option to select a mouse over color. Can this be done some other way? | |

Icon links are the trend in modern web design with the increase in the number of potential visitors using mobile devices. In practice, these don't use hovers since mobile devices don't support them. There are ways to create a hover state and the obvious - but wasteful - one is to use two images. Nowadays, CSS transitions are more often used than Javascript to apply changes to the hover state. The Image Tint widget is an example of applying a tint and varying this on hover. ------------------------------- Roddy Website: http://everwebwidgets.com Contact: http://everwebwidgets.com/ewWidgets-home/contact.html NOTE: I am an EverWeb user and NOT affiliated with EverWeb!

If your menu is using icons, why would you expect the mouse over color to do? ------------------------------- Paul EverWeb Developer |

| Change color the same way color changes on a mouse over of a text link. The icon is a jpg of a text field in a font that is not considered web safe. In other words I want to use an non safe font so I create jpg's of the text links and I'd like them to behave the same way as if they were text links in a menu. | |

You need to use text to create a text hyperlink with a hover color - not an image. If you want to use non-websafe font's they should be hosted or Google hosted. See more about fonts HERE and how to create hyperlinks using HTML.
