Blurring text, Moving mouse over text Options

[goober13]

Okay Hi again, how do you get the Text to Blur once you move the Mouse over it? Or maybe even get crossed out? I really appreciate it! Thankssss!!!!

-->
a:hover {filter:blur(add="0",direction="45",strength="5"); height:0;};
</style>

I placed this code, and another like it, on my xanga before...the code works fine, but when you run the cursor over some links entire sections of my blog entries disappear!!

Why does this happen? Is there a way to fix it??

wat happens is that when the image gets blured it gets big to soo....if you wrote around the pic then the words that you wrote will be moved further down to make room for the pic to become bigger...

That's not exactly the problem. I can put the cursor over a text-link nowhere near one of the blogs and half of all the blogs just disappear. and then i can put the cursor on another and part (or all) of the missing blogs come back. It's really very annoying...
I'd tell you to go look, but it took the code out to solve the problem.

I put the script back in... it happens mostly with the "leave comments" links, or the "next 5" at the bottom (along with others as well...). Let me know if anyone can help me with this!

lol...sorry. I got impatient and changed it to something that worked. ...but i'd rather have it blured. So it's changed back and i'll leave it this way this time so you have a chance to see what i mean...

Sorry about that

[mjk1009]

Hmmm...i looked where i have the code (custom header) and i didn't see that extra <style> in the code. I've tried the code in website stats too and it does the same thing... This is very annoying...

[Riddik75]

Also...i've tried other hover effects (color changing...fading...etc) and the all do the same thing to the blogs. I'm thinking it's another code that's the problem... how would i find out which one is affecting it?

[pseudo]

Well, I dunno exactly, but I think it has something to do with the fact that you have an alpha filter on your entry boxes. Internet Explorer doesn't handle those very well. If you remove that, then the blur will work fine...

But then it won't be as pretty.

sacrifices...after all we ARE using xanga for free but doing premium stuff arent we....
