background color change hover

[stevo1]

hi folks, not sure what i'm trying to block so i'll describe it as best i can. i didn't find anything in search either. it's the background color change on hover. for example; twitter. is this something adblock plus can block or should i go looking for a user style? thanks.

Adblock Plus can only block entire stylesheets, which would cause the page to lose all its formatting. I would advise that advise that you install an add-on such as Stylish and configure it to remove the hover effect on the Twitter domain.

The only thing Adblock Plus can do is remove page elements, it cannot modify them.

What exactly do you want to change on twitter? The background color of an entry when you hover over it with the mouse?

The background color of an entry when you hover over it with the mouse?

yes, exactly, but not only on twitter other sites as well that like to highlight a body of text when you hover. it's some type of css background property or element but i really don't know that much about html or css.

For the desktop version of twitter, you can use this style (for example with Stylish):

Code: Select all

@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);

@-moz-document domain("twitter.com") {

.stream-item:hover { background-color: #000 !important; }

}

Adjust the color the usual way.

I obviously can't help with "other sites" as long as I don't know them, but maybe you found out yourself already.
