Whats the best way to implement rollover 'buttons' like Stackoverflow has for 'Questions', 'Tags', 'Users' at the top.
It is actually implemented like this :
<div class="nav">
<ul class="primarynav">
<li class="">
<a href="/questions">Questions</a>
</li>
<li class="">
<a href="/tags">Tags</a>
</li>
<li class="">
<a href="/users">Users</a>
</li>
<li class="">
<a href="/badges">Badges</a>
</li>
<li class="">
<a href="/unanswered">Unanswered</a>
</li>
</ul>
I kinda gave up trying to find the javascript for this since all the javsascript seems to be on one line.
I was just wondering what people think is the simplest / most reliable way to implement simple buttons like this.
I found it very interesting that stackoverflow is using <li>
and not something like <span>
. Curious as to why...
PS. I'm using ASP.NET -- currently with no other libraries such as JQuery, but willing to try something like that if it'll help.
