Mouseover script help?

Somebdy help with the followin html+javascript code.?

  • <html> <head> <script> function big(a) { a.style.fontSize=40; } function small(a) { a.style.fontSize=20; } </script> <body> <span onmouseover="big(this)" onmouseout="small(this)">H</SPAN> <span onmouseover="big(this)" onmouseout="small(this)">E</SPAN> <span onmouseover="big(this)" onmouseout="small(this)">L</SPAN> <span onmouseover="big(this)" onmouseout="small(this)">L</SPAN> <span onmouseover="big(this)" onmouseout="small(this)">O</SPAN> </body> </html> when you save it in html extension and run it and move your mouse over it, the text begins to jump here and there, i am helpless, plz help I Want the text to remain "fixed" when the mouse is not over it. For example, if i move the mouse on H, i want the remaining letters(E,L,L,O) to remain fixed, but as you move the mouse on H, (its size increases,fine,but) but the remaining letters still move from their places, it dont want that to happen... Similarly if you move your mouse over E then H's size will reduce, fine, but still it will move frm its original place... collectively, i want every letter to increase its size on mouseover (with other letters remaining static) and shrink on onmouseout THE IDEA IS TO INCREASE SIZE OF TEXT THE MOUSE IS OVER, AND TO KEEP OTHERS STATIC BUT THE PROBLEM IS THE SIZE INCREASE BUT OTHERS DONT REMAIN "STATIC"

  • Answer:

    If you increase the font size you are increasing the width of a letter as well as the height so the letters in your case naturally try to push each other out of the way to make room. What you need is more control over the individual positioning of each letter though this will inevitably impose it's own limitations. You could try something like the following - though you may need to play around with the CSS depending what font you are using: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/XJIy9zFGXmD1RzFXbpCm/ http://pastebin.com/vnuS5QbS

I told you once before here, http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AjKDwB3nZxgUrUR5pi.6vZvty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20120401034453AA0wkWc , what your problem is. You will have to set a "box" width/height to cover the font size change for each letter. Center the letter to be moused over. Any increase in text size will be inside the "boxes" and shouldn't affect the other "boxes". Ron

Without looking at your code, I can already tell the other letters are moving out of the way because of the increased size of the other letter. I don't think there's any way to change that.
