Hover Buttons

Recently I added hover buttons to our website, however they are only visable
and accessable on 2 of 3 computers in my office. All computers are running
the same version of WindowsXP so I am thinking that maybe it is related to
the monitor or some other setting? If it is a problem on one computer here, I
am sure that it is a problem on other computers trying to view our website.
Anyone with suggestions?
 
Hi Stephanie,

My suggestion would be to not use hover buttons..they are actually Java
Applets... and there are quite a few computers out there that either don't
have Java installed or enabled. Chances are that is what has happened on the
one computer in your office. Since that computer is under your control..you
could probably fix that..but if this is an Internet site..there's lots more
out there that you will have no control over.
 
Depending on the release date of the installed Windows XP OS, the MS Java Virtual Machine was not
included. This applies to many users, so it is best to not use any Java applets.

Hover buttons require Java. Java is no longer automatically installed on
most computers, which is why many recommend to NOT use hover buttons.

Each computer user would have to download and install a Java Virtual
Machine. They are available at www.java.com

Thanks Joe. Now it is clear. Also thank you to Thomas, Tom & E.T. for your
responses. They were all helpful. I think I will just stay away from the Java
applets from now on.
Take care
