Desigining my first website in a long time, and i'm trying to go the css route.

the splash screen slash menu is going to be a 3x5 grid of images. each one will be a link, and i'd like to make each image have an alternate image which would show when mouse-overed. i can only find a:hover stuff on google. is this even possible with CSS or am i going to have to use javascript or something
 
To be a bit more explicit than the above post, IE does not support :hover on anything but anchor tags. This is a browser deficiency and a persistent source of frustration for cross-platform web developers. Although, if you can work it into your design, this is an interesting solution.
 
This may be somewhat challenging for a beginner, but I think it would pay off. Check out this example and see how they did it in this tutorial. Pretty nice that you can get a funky image map kind of thing with just a plain old <ul>.

that looks interesting. i'm going to get a chance to try it out this week when i get some free time. i'll post my findings and hopefully some results.

thanks
