client wants a differnt menu

[lleighh]

I have a working menu here. It's controlled by CSS using trans gifs. I like it but the client does not. They want the background to stay black and for the text color to change. I've tried to make the trans gifs diferently ... could not get the text edges clean enough.

Any ideas how to pull this off?

Looks ok to me as it is.

I personally think that the white text is good, but the red on-hover seems to 'darken', somehow lessing the fact that your on an active link. Somehow, I'd want to try something like another 'light' color, heavier font, or font that is just ever-so slightly LARGER when you hover.
-Just my opinion. :) I like what you've accomplished so far.

No prob. in FF or IE

Another approach maybe is the following script:

<style type="text/css">
<!--

.font { font-size: 12px;
font-color: black;
font-weight: bold;
}

A:link {text-decoration: none;}
A:visited {text-decoration: none;
}

a:link {
color: #000000;
}
a:visited {
color: #000000;
}
a:hover {
color: #990000;
}
a:active {
color: #990000;
}

-->
</style>

You may want to revise the colors, but I think this may be what your after?
