[Frank Jacobsen]

I try to explain my problem a little better then last time , my A href only fires when im over the actuel text "my href text", i want to fire my A href i the whole div element, is this possible ?

 
<div class="bdUnderline"  >
     <a href=dosomeaction>my href text</a>
</div>

Just like the answer in the last post, you need to put the event handler on the div. SO somehow you need to programmatically or manually add the event handler.

I dident get an answer on my last post ! But i dident understand the answer:

you need to put the event handler on the div !

I have tryed with an mouse over on the div element, its that what you mean, i have tried to make :

<div onmoouseover="do something">
<div>
< a href "do my href">
</div>
</div>

But there is no mouse over on the whole div, only on the tekst, so where else can i put it ?

just add onclick event to the div like so...

    
<div style = "width:200px;height:30px;border :-o	 utset 1px black;" o nclick = "window.location.href = 'http://www.url.com'" >
click here to go somewhere...
</div>
 
or you can do like <div ... o nclick = "myfunction('http://www.url.com')>
                   click here to go some where..
                   </div>
 
and in your script tags to like so..
 
<script type = "text/javascript">
 
function myfunction(url)
{
  window.location.href = url;
}
</script>

Hope this helps you out a bit,

I have no idea what you mean by "tekst" or by this statement.

add css to the div, set the cursor to pointer.
