Thread: Personal Website Help
Planet Tolkien is archived and no longer updated, but the forums remain browseable. We have established a Telegram group for old and new visitors to stay connected and discuss all things Tolkien.
I am currently developing a website that needs text to appear below a link when it is rolled over using only css. This isn't hard to do, but I do not want to use span tags to achieve it. I have seen it done, but the website is no longer available for me to steal the code from it. All I remember is that they used hyperlinks and the property "content: " was used, but I can't get it to work when I hover over the link.
Any help would be appreciated.

Is there any special reason you don't want to use a span tag? you do actually need some sort of inline tag. a div with display:inline; might work - but it does have to be somthing that isn't block level.
Well I did some quick testing, and it works with just about anything - including font's and div's. Here's a quick example with the html 4 transitonal dtd and a div tag. If you need anymore help let me know.

I may not remember much from that site I mentioned, but I do know that wasn't it. However, what you gave me works especially well!!! I tried something similar to that, but I couldn't quite get it to work. I have only been learning html/css for half a year so I'm not familiar with what works here or there. Because of this, I really appreciate your help!!!
My webpage is http://icidweb.xoompages.com. The code I am using right now doesn't work in IE, except version 7 beta and it's buggy in that. I will shortly change everything to what you gave me!!! My site is mostly just someplace to test my webpage skills as I need a LOT of practice if that's what I want to do in life. I'm not even 18 yet, so I have plenty of time to practice!!!
Also,I don't want to sound greedy, but if I have questions here and there, you won't mind answering them will you?

No worries D-Rob, happy to help.
I have yet another web question. Go here using a Mozilla browser, then go to it in IE 6. It displays wrong because of a couple "position: absolute"s in the css, but why? On pages where 3 "absolutes" are used, if 1 is taken out, it works (well, doesn't display it all crammed together). On pages with 2, if 1 is taken out, it does the same thing. Also, if I change my doc type to html 4.0 instead of xhtml, it displays correctly. Think perhaps that it's just a bug in IE 6? If you have IE 7, tell me if it displays right because I'm using Win 2k and IE 7 isn't compatible...
Grep hasn't been available for a while D-rob; I'm sure he will try to answer your question when he gets time. I checked out the above link and I saw the difference between Mozilla and IE6; I'm still using WIN 98 2nd edition and I know nothing about making webpages.
