I want to make text links that have almost a java behavior to them: When you mouse over, the background color changes. I'm working in DWmx and have figured a few things out, all except the changing of the color. I DO NOT WANT JAVA SCRIPT as this is an optimization thing.

this is an example of what i'm talking about: http://www.bwf-america.com/filter-bags.html

you can see the navigation on the left are all made of text blocks, and when you roll over them, the back ground changes color. I like the little lines that seperate them too.

What you want can be easily done with CSS and absolutely no javascript.
There are many examples here:

very cool, thanks so much! For anyone looking for a quick copy/paste, here's the code I used. You just stuff it into the CSS file

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

#button li {
border-bottom: 1px solid #FFFFFF;
margin: 0;
}

#button li a {
display: block;

background-color: 666666;
color: #fff;
text-decoration: none;
width: 100%;
}

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

#button li a:hover {
background-color: #FF00FF;
color: #fff;
}
