CSS is what makes the links change when you rollover. Read the article and you will understand. You asked how to do it and I gave you a link to the answer.

k what you could do is use a rollover image thats what your looking for, or you could use another cool efect which is called a nav bar image which as up, over and clicked states something like what i used here [http://www.bmv-interactive.com/quericopub](http://www.bmv-interactive.com/quericopub) for the menus just make a gif of the text you want to use and change the color or the size but make sure its in the same pixel size so it doesnt look strange, if this is what you mean you can go to insert in dreamweaver and choose either rollover image or navigation bar image and specify which image will be used on rollover and up or down states its a very neat

if you need more DW help let me know but be sure to specify you problem wiht details not just i cant do this lol

good luck :beam:

yeah I figured it was JS.

grimDeath: yeah you could use images, but most times its not a good idea because you can keep the size of the page much smaller by using text.
