Dynamicanimation

[Barb]

Hi All,
I hope someone can help me. I am redesigning my web site. I have used the
dynamicanimation swap image feature in the past, with no problem whatsoever.
This time around, rollover images will just make my page look too busy so I
am using rollover text, again using the dynamicanimation feature. The
problem is I am finding it very quirky. Please take a look at
http://www.creationsanew.com/about2.htm and look at the last two links
which are the "Groups and Associations" and "Guest Book" link. When you put
your cursor over the "Groups and Associations"link the "Guest Book" link
moves also. It seems every time I change something I run into this problem.
I am always adding links so I am hoping to avoid this problem again. I know
a little about hand coding but cannot find the problem. Thanks for any
help in advance.

Part of it is simply that when the text takes on an italicised nature it
slightly reduces the vertical aspect of the text, shortening the table cell
slightly and pulling up the next cell. Also, not all the text effects are
identical. If you look at the transition being applied to the Groups and
Associations is not identical to the Guest Book or even all the other links.
You may want to try copying and pasting the styles to be applied so that
they are all consistant. Also, dump the style for the setting the text to
blink. This won't work because the dyanmic animation effect only works in
IE. The blink effect doesn't work in IE which makes it a useless effect as
the blink was originally a Netscape Navigator only tag.

Hope this helps,

Never mind. Someone from another group gave me an alternative using a Css
style sheet.
