Class HyperLink and mouseover

[Peter Eriksson]

I am making a link with the HyperLink-class like this:

HyperLink link = new HyperLink();
link.NavigateUrl = "http://www.page.com";
link.Text = "Some text";
link.ImageUrl="/images/linkimage.gif";

What I would like to do is to show another image for the link on the
mouseover event.

Is this possible?

Peter,

Probably not. If anything, you would have to create a new class that
derives from HyperLink, and then have that class inject the javascript code
for the rollover effect.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

are you developing a windows or a WebForms (ASP.NET) application?

What I would like to do is to show another image for the link on the
mouseover event.

in case of ASP.NET:
ASP.NET is a server-side technology, in other words, you can't execute
code on client-side events (like mouseover).

You have to use JavaScript to do that.
