Help with PHP/Javascript

Anon

Hi guys

This is more a javascripts question but I am hoping someone can help.

I want to change the background colour of a table cell or row when moving over it and then back to normal when moving out.

Can anyone help or point me in the right direction.

This is definitely a JS problem! But something along these lines should work:
<td onMouseOver="this.bgColor="#ffff00" onMouseOut="this.bgColor="#ff0000">
There are many JS forums out there which you should be using! :=)

I have done it, but it only works with IE. Netscape doesn't support dynamic changing of the background color of a table cell on a onmousover event (at least not that I have found). Incidently, this code also changes the cursor to a hand (like when you mouseover a link)... for example (sorry, it is straight out of my code, so it is a bit messy):

in the style tag in the <head> tag:

.offstate {
background-color : #CCCC99;
}
.onstate {
background-color : #FFFFCC;
cursor : hand;
}

in the body:

<tr class=offstate onMouseOver="this.className='onstate';" onMouseOut="this.className='offstate';">
<td>Some stuff in the table</td>
</tr>
