Hover links in Netscape
I use CSS to set fonts etc on my page but in Netscape the hover for links doesn't work. It works fine in IE. Whe the mouse is over the link it should change to yellow and underlined but doesn't in Netscape. Any ideas?
see http://surf.to/macros to see what I mean.

Just looking at my page - if anyone goes there can you tell me why the date in the main frame isn't the actual last modified date? The one in the menu frame points to the same document but they give different dates.
Automatic A feedback to anyone who answers both questions.

Have you any idea about the date on the main frame (that's it's name in the frameset doc)?
I've tried parent.frames[1].document.
document.LastModified
parent.main.document.LastM
parent.self.document.LastM
but it still gives the date of the parent document or undefined - which I assume is casued by my lack of understanding of scripts.

It's working fine for me. The actual address is members.xoom.com/Traveller
I've sussed out some of the problem:
My page is at Xoom and I also use surf.to (masking the real URL) This results in nested frames.
surf.to creates a hidden frame called "thepage" which holds everything.
then xoom creates a frameset for it's banner at the top - the frame that holds my page is "thePage"
Then my index.htm makes two frames called "menu" and "main"
Phew - lost yet?
Now, how can I get "menu" to display the lastmodified date of "main" and "main" to display it's own lastmodified date?
If you can solve this I'll increase the points to 160 (my limit) and then giev you an A. Thanks, brigmar.

OK.. looking now ( i assume you were uploading when I recv'd the forbidden message).... this is your frameset heirarchy..
thepage
pb
thepage
menu
main
<undefined>
However, there are several ways to access your page..
http://surf.to/macros
http://members.xoom.com/Traveller42
http://members.xoom.com/_XOOM/Traveller42
The reference you require is :
document.lastModified
You may need to clear the cache from your browser. This may be why your date isn't changing.

That's what I am using - it don't work - I cleared my cache like you suggested but no change. I suppose the question is how do I reference another document in the hierarchy.
ASKER
I've moved my page to Crosswinds (which I was planning to do anyway) and it works fine the way it should. It must be the extra frame at Xoom that was causing the problem.
Thanks for the help.
As for the Hover - it's only a gimmick anyway - I'm not going to bother getting into layers and rollovers and stuff - netscape users can still see the links fine.

I am seeing the menu as modified about an hour ago, and the main content frame (index2.htm) as being modified 4 days ago.
Could you please make a change to index2.htm and re-upload it ?

I made a few changes to it over the last hour. I've moved the page anyway to Crosswinds and changed the surf.to
try http://surf.to/macros again - It should go to Crosswinds and the dates seem to be fine.
