Navigation Revisited
Posted: Wed 22 March, 2006 Filed under: D4D™ 3 Comments »Following on from the post last week (if not the week before, but I can’t be arsed to check) about “mystery navigation” etc., I’ve decided that for the moment I’ll make the navigation stuff more visible.
I don’t know if it’ll make any real differences – I suspect not, after all this time – but I figure I might as well at least have a look and see how we do with a bit more “user friendliness”…
I’m not sure that I’m so keen on the way that visited links in the sidebar are white-on-yellow when you hover, whereas unvisited links are black-on-yellow.
White-on-yellow is not considered to be one of the more usable colour combinations.
I agree – I just hadn’t figured out what was causing it. Still haven’t, to be honest- if you look in the CSS, it has #navigation a:visited as black.
There – fixed. (to a degree) Took out the background colour change on the :hover attribute, which seems to work. It’s not perfect – IE still won’t do it properly, probably something to do with the way it’s written – but I can live with that, at least it works cross-browser, just not consistently, and not in quite the way I wanted.
Close enough, though.
