Text updates with mouseOver events... help s.v.p :)

[Tr8oR]

I want to know if it's possible to alter the value of some paragraph tags using javascript...<br>
<br>
This'll help make my page much clearer because I want mouseOver events to trigger writing to be updated, and the only way I can do that at the moment is with text or input boxes. Failing that, is it possible to have the text box there just its borders aren't drawn? Thanks

I dont think you can do it with JavaScript, but I discovered some pretty interesting things that you can do with Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). What you can do is specify all &lt;textarea&gt; tags to be the same exact color as the background on your page, and they won't show at all, they will simply blend in. I have found this to be kind of fun to mess with, because you can also make 'rollover' texareas as well as all input areas-- including submit buttons and radio buttons, all kinds of buttons, checkboxes, whatever. It's treally simple, but this part requires a short line of JavaScript. The only problem with this however, is that the inferior browser we all know as 'Netscape' does not support CSS.

Netscape 5 will support it the _right_ way, though.

We shall see....

As poorly as Netscape supports CCS now, it's almost inaccurate to say that it supports it at all.
