Hey everyone,
As the name suggests I have the respective classes coded to highlight the current page on the Nav bar, but it isn't working whatsoever. Is it missing something? *NOTE* This website is coded with HTML and CSS exclusively and would like to avoid Java if possible. Thanks I hope the screen shot attached...

I wonder if you have misunderstood a:active? It doesn't mean a link to the current page. It's means the state a link is in for a brief moment exactly when it's clicked. If you just click as you normally do it's so brief it's hard to see. But if you make it extreme... CODE <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>a:active</title> <style type="text/css"> body { background: black } a { color: white; font: bold 300% Verdana, sans-serif } a:active { color: red } </style> </head> <body> <p> <a href="http://htmlhelp.com">The WDG</a></p> </body> </html> |

QUOTE(pandy @ May 28 2019, 02:12 AM) Nope. I don't see anything like that. In particular, this selector: CODE li a.current won't do anything by itself, it's just an ordinary CLASS name (and there is no link using that CLASS in the HTML anyway).

If you just click as you normally do it's so brief it's hard to see. Yes, it's mostly when a page takes time to respond you may notice. |
