"is it possible to use the hover pseudo class to affect the "display" property of a separate div? I want to have a row of thumbnails on the left, and as you roll the mouse over a thumbnail a larger image appears on the right. Easy enough to do with javascript, but can you do it using just css?" Yes, css will do this-- in every browser BUT (drumroll here . . . .) you guessed it. IE. IE only recognizes hover on links. You might want to peek at how Eric handled it in his css popups 2 demonstration here, though his hovers are links. The "separate div" thing is solved by absolute positioning: <http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/popups/demo2.html> Also, dropdown/flyout menus often "solve" this problem so you might be able to use their solution, the csshover.htc file served to IE in a conditional comment. See these two methods: <http://www.positioniseverything.net/css-dropdowns.html> <http://www.tanfa.co.uk/css/examples/menu/tutorial-v.asp> Good luck! bj ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL-REMOVED]] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
