Hi,
I'm looking at the buttons used on twitter's home page, specifically the big orange 'signup' button. I see it is defined like this:
<p id="signup-btn">
<a id="signup_submit" href="/signup">
<span>Sign Up</span>
</a>
</p>
are they just using css to give the orange button appearance (which may just be a jpg), and also using css to specify the roll-over appearance (another jpg), and finally a third state for mouse-click (another jpg) to give the impression of a real clickable button?
If that's how it works, what should I look for to do the same thing? In my case I just want to make a button I guess, like:
<div class='mybutton'>Hello!</div>
.mybutton {
bgcolor: red;
bgcolor-mouseover: yellow;
bgcolor-mousedown: green;
}
yeah something like that would be great,
Thanks
