Overrides and stuff

posted by [personal profile] pmsumner at 05:21pm on 07/05/2002
Anyone any good with LJ style overrides? Anyone care to explain to me why the following override doesn't flip the link text round when I place my mouse cursor over it? 
GLOBAL_HEAD<=
<style>
.flip a:hover {Filter: FlipH} 
</style>
<=GLOBAL_HEAD

<table class="flip">
<tr>
<td align="center">
<a href="#">Text to be flipped
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Because flipping text is a fucking obonxious thing to do, and thankfully they're not letting you do it.

Agreed entirely on the obnoxious PoV, but you are wrong on the other point.

It's really beginning to annoy me now - I can plainly see it's possible yet I can not recreate it. Grrr.

after much fiddling... you have to provide a height :)

this code will work:

GLOBAL_HEAD<=
<style type="text/css">
<!--
.flip a:hover {
height:0;
filter:flipv fliph;
}
-->
</style>
<=GLOBAL_HEAD

i made an entry in my test journal [livejournal.com profile] person651 to test this, though i can't promise how long the overrides will stay in there for! thought i'd do a vertical flip as well. so yeah, most recent entry should be flipping :)

have added you back now too, you provided an interesting challenge!

*smiles* But now the real question is - can it be used inline?
*tests* feh, don't think so
Thanks!

Now - I wonder if that request is still open? :)
