Ok this works in firefox . flink will change the text color to red when the mouse is over the link.

<A class="flink" style="cursor:pointer"
onclick="javascript:open.window('somepage.htm,'example')",>
click me, </a>

In IE the text color does not change. Only when I put a href="#" the color will change when the mouse is over. However this is not desirable as when one clicks the link with the href="#" the page scrolls back to the top.! ? What to do?

Sarpidon, edit your post and check the box which disables smiley faces in your post.

Sarpidon, when you have the # in a link, the page will just reload itself. That is why the page reloads back to the top.

Try taking out the comma just before the > of the link.

E.G.

FROM:

<A class="flink" style="cursor:pointer"
onclick="javascript:open.window('somepage.htm,'example')",>
click me, </a>

TO:

<A class="flink" style="cursor:pointer"
onclick="javascript:open.window('somepage.htm,'example')",>
click me, </a>

Hope that helps,

hehe manson... those two are the same

<A class="flink" style="cursor:pointer"
onclick="javascript:open.window('somepage.htm,'example')">
click me, </a>

Make sure that your CSS has the hyperlink styling instructions in this order :

a:link

a:visited

a:hover

a:active

oh yea lol, my mistake :P
