IE PC: problem w/hover using different images

Sent by Tracy Shorrock on 29 October 2004 02:02


Hi, me again!

I've been working on my page again, desperate to use as much css as 
possible. However, there are a couple of javascripts in there.

Q. I've now applied an inline list to the telephone and e-mail 'icons' 
on the right of the page (above the whale photos). So one <li> shows 
the telephone image and the  other the e-mail image, and there is a 
:hover statement attached to each one showing a 'glowing' version of 
the normal image.

As you roll-over each one a div slides up from the bottom of the window 
with the appropriate info on it. (this is the javascript enabled part).

This works perfectly in Mac - IE 5.2, Safari and Firefox. [And has been 
validated. I've tried to validate the XHTML but unfortunately a 
necessary <layer> tag in the javascript makes it fail. Just that and 
the <bgsound> tag.]

However, my client using IE6 on a pc says that it shows two telephone 
images instead of the telephone then the e-mail image (@). But when she 
rolls over the second telephone image - on the right - the correct 
'glowing' @ hover image appears. I'm assuming it's something to do with 
the #tellist li.email a:link, #tellist a:visited bit.

What's going on? Can anyone point out my mistake.

telcontainer {width: 140px; }

#telcontainer ul {
	margin: 0;
	margin-top: 300px;
	padding: 0;
	list-style-type: none;
	font-family: Impact, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
	font-size: 3em;
	font-style: normal;
	font-weight: normal;
	text-align: center;
	white-space: nowrap;
}

#telcontainer a {
	padding: 0px;
	width: 40px;
	\width: 40px;
	w\idth: 40px;
	height: 41px;
	color: #ddd;
	text-decoration: none;
	outline: none;
}

#telcontainer a:link, #tellist a:visited
{
color: #ddd;
text-decoration: none;
background: url(images/telephone_off.jpg) no-repeat top;
}

#telcontainer a:hover, #tellist a:active
{
color: #006192;
text-decoration: none;
background: url(images/telephone_on.jpg) no-repeat top;
}

#tellist li
{
display: inline;
list-style-type: none;
}

#tellist li.email a:link, #tellist a:visited
{
color: #ddd;
text-decoration: none;
background: url(images/email_off.jpg) no-repeat top;
}

#tellist li.email a:hover, #tellist a:active
{
color: #006192;
text-decoration: none;
background: url(images/email_on.jpg) no-repeat top;
}

Thanks for any pointers.

Cheers,

Tracy
