Rule of Thumb: you can only show and hide elements via :hover in CSS when
they are _inside_ the element you are hovering over. If this element is
not positioned, then you can position these elements absolutely. You can
not have several different elements appear and disappear on the same link
though.
So, if you want to position two different images in other sections of the
screen, you need to embed them in the link:
<a href="#" class="one"><img src="foo.gif" class="img1" /><img
src="bar.gif" class="img2" />text</a>
Then you can specify them to be not visible when the link is normal and
positioned in the two locations when someone hovers over the link. If the
images are eye candy only, I'd rather use a script though, as this one
allows you to dynamically change a fixed image, and you are not forced to
add all 10 images (if you have 5 links) to the markup and the document.
