Is there a way to use the mouseover tool for a text link or is the mouseover tool limited to objects only ?

I had wondered the same thing but I found that if I underlined the text it let me use the mouse over option. Try it and see if it works for you.:rolleyes:

Thanks for the reply . I just tried your suggestion and the mouseover box won't allow it . It works great with objects but I just want the text to change color on one of the menus. I mean the text link works ok. I will survive without it but I thought it would be a nice subtle touch to the menu . Thanks again . Maybe I need to purchase the FLASH menu builder !

for now you could just copy and paste this in the head section under the edit tab, then edit header>
<style type="text/css">
a:link {
color: white;
}

a:active {
color: black;
}

a:visited {
color: yellow;
}

a:hover {
color: blue;
}
</style>

It IS possible to make mouseover text links.

What you have to do is check the box 'Allow advanced text'. It will appear when you have written your text and clicked outside the text box so that you have a blue rectangle around your text. Then you make the mouseover first, and make the link from the mouseover, NOT from the original text box.

Sorry about my previous response. After I logged off I realzed that the anser I gave was actually meant for someone else I'm working with. What I meant to tell you was to check the "Allow advanced text" box. I see someone else's brain cells were working better than mine and has already given you that answer. Sorry it took me so long to get back to you.
