Not sure if this can be done with CSS - 12/5/2003 16:37:08   
I'm currently using a javascript on a few of my sites that changes the color of a table when rolled over. I use this primarily in navigation. I know that changing the look of fonts, links, etc. can be done via CSS, but can changing the color of the table be done via CSS as well (on rollover), so that it can all neatly and easily be defined in the CSS doc?

An example of what I'm talking about is here: Hospital Receivables

See how the rolover of the tables behind each nav link changes from white to yellow? Can this be done with CSS instead of having to use a javascript?

thanks,
Lil

Yep....I did it here

http://www.suzannehimka.com

and here

http://www.design-a-website.com/lvcc/

Here is the code from the Suzanne Himka one:
This is on my external style sheet, but you could also put it in the head of your document. Just change my values for yours.

#navcontainer
{
width: 12em;
border-right: 1px solid #000;
padding: 0 0 1em 0;
margin-bottom: 1em;
font-family: Verdana, Lucida, Geneva, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 10pt;
background-color: #90bade;
color: #333;
}

#navcontainer ul
{
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
border: none;
}

#navcontainer li
{
border-bottom: 1px solid #90bade;
margin: 0;
}

#navcontainer li a
{
display: block;
padding: 5px 5px 5px 0.5em;
border-left: 10px solid #1958b7;
border-right: 10px solid #508fc4;
background-color: #2175bc;
color: #fff;
text-decoration: none;
width: 100%;
}

html>body #navcontainer li a { width: auto; }

#navcontainer li a:hover
{
border-left: 10px solid #1c64d1;
border-right: 10px solid #5ba3e0;
background-color: #2586d7;
color: #fff;
}

This is where you want it to be in the document:
<div id="navcontainer">
<ul id="navlist">
<li><a href="index.htm" title="Suzanne Himka Home Page ">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="services.htm" title="fitness and nutrition services ">Services</a></li>
