Link : Active not working?

  • Hey again everyone, im having a small css problem...

    ive created the navigaion and got my hover state working but i cannot get my active state to work.

    heres the page

    http://www.scottgm.net23.net/

    the active state only works when you hold down the mouse on the link.

    any ideas?
  • its doing that website under review thing again :D
  • Sorry man its that free hosting, i dont want to put these examples on my 1and1 server.

    the site is working again, would you mind looking again?
  • hey dude,

    Your active state does work, it takes a few clicks for the graphic to load, but it is working - what I would recommend is to use CSS Sprites, so you can combat the loading time :)

    Here is the CSS Tricks Sprite Tutorial:

    Enjoy! :D

    p.s I do enjoy your patriotism, my dad is from just north of Inverness... I love Aberdeen, its a really nice city, and nice to drive round too - unlike most other cities...
  • hey man, thanks i think ill try the sprites stuff, ive watched the vid but ill have another look.


    Thanks, Good for driving? lol... im learning to drive in Aberdeen rightnow... i wouldn't call it nice.
    My dad is also from up north, Near thurso... great place.
  • yea the sprites are great, and once you get it, its funkey :)

    Yea Aberdeen, has nice wide roads, clear one way signs - you should try going round Leeds... they have a "loop" road thats like no other road that "loops" i know lol

    Leeds must be the worst place to drive around in your car lol
