Hi,

I have a HTML page with 4 hyperlinks - setup to look like buttons. When any of the 4 links is clicked they will load into the the frame of this HTML page. What I would like is have the background color change when they click on one of the buttons (Hyperlinks). which I've been able to do with using "active" however, if the user click anywhere on the loaded new HTML page the background color of the button disappears. do I need some short of onmousedown function to maintain the background color? If anyone has an example or can direct me to some some additional information on this that would be great.

You'll have to use JavaScript to manipulate this. Take a look at StackOverflow: How to keep :active css style after clicking an element, particularly the third answer. You will have to deal with the scenario of un-highlighting a hyperlink when a second one is clicked on...

If you're using JavaScript, the quickest method would be to remove the background colour of each of the four hyperlinks, then apply the background colour on the clicked-on hyperlink.
