Netscape+CSS+Hover Command

Im having problems getting netscape to recognise the css hover command. this is the code css code that i am using.

A:hover {
COLOR: white;
TEXT-DECORATION: overline;
FONT-SIZE: 12;
}

Is there a problem with it or is this another of netscapes "quirks"
Any help appreciated.

Russ

The hover command is currently supported only by IE 4.0 and over; using it in other browsers has no effect.

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana,Arial,Helvetica">quote:</font><HR>
A:hover {
COLOR: white;
TEXT-DECORATION: overline;
FONT-SIZE: 12;
}
[/B][/quote]

Russ -

This is not a supported element in netscape. I think it might have support in the new mozilla 6.0. That's why it don't work. ;-)

The only way to make this work in netscape is with a function and some <span> tags. Don't bother. It's a pain in the ***.

Check out developer.netscape.com for more info.
