C# hover button with code

I am trying to do a hover feature with my button.

I have set the button up as

  <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" BackColor="#0099CC" BorderStyle="None"
        onclick="Button1_Click" Text="Button" OnMouseEnter="Button1_MouseEntr" OnMouseLeave="Button1_MouseLve"
        />

and have the code as

 private void Button1_MouseEntr(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Button1.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red;
    }

but nothing is happening.

Does anybody know?

you can write javascript for doing this
mahadevan_v

create 2 javascript functions
 1.changes color of the button
2. resets the button to its original color

Call the functions on onmouseenter and onmouseleave events

To add the events to button use
button.Attributes.Add("onmouseenter","function name ");
in the server side code

Ok... i am not the best at codeing with javascript ...

my requirement is:

to create a set of tabs using buttons.

The user passes over a button where there will be a rollover effect (change color/image).

The use then clicks the button and then it permantly changes color until another button is clicked.

This is the best money I have ever spent. I cannot not tell you how many times these folks have saved my bacon. I learn so much from the contributors.

There is no server side event for mouse events in asp.net.

You are calling the OnMouseEnter (which is a java script and client side event), it will not be executed on Server side.

What you have to do is either create a javascript method or use style sheets (CSS) to achieve this functionality.

If you got my point than i will clarify it further in next post.
