Inserting rollover text using Dreamweaver CS3

To answer a question, inserting rollover text into a web page using dreamweaver cs3 is easy. It is a matter of some simple css work. Unless of course you are using graphics then you are probably working with rollover images even though it looks like text.

When using dreamweaver you will notice on the right side panel an area for css. You right click on that area and create a new class, or a new stylesheet if none has been added yet. You then set the properties for the text. IF it is a link then you want to set the standard, visited, and hover properties or you will end up with one of those ugly purple links after it is clicked on. The visited attribute tells the browser to reset that style to the standard setting so it looks the same after it has been visited. The hover attribute lets you show underlined text or a different color text. There are other goodies but I am not getting into all of that right now.

If you are working with rollover images then you need to insert image elements, then select rollover image. You would select the standard image and the hover image along with the alt text and a name for the image being called in the javascript. Simple as that.

Good Luck!
