How can I make Hover Buttons work with a single click?

E

ExcelQuestion

Do hover buttons only work with a double click or is there something I can do
to make them work on a single click? Or a way of making a bookmark hyperlink
look like a proper button?

I am referring to the blue buttons at the top of the following page (exotic
cars, t-rex, luxury sedans etc):

www.ambassadorautosales.com/inventory.htm

We are in the process of changing hosting companies so site may be down
temporarily or be having problems, but I would still appreciate any advice
from all you experts out there. Thank you.

And don't use hover buttons anyhow - nobody will see them anymore, since
Windows is no longer distributed with the Java engine....

Dell has been shipping their computers with Sun Java pre-installed for quite
some time. Don't know about the other OEMs.

That's still not a good enough reason to ever use hover buttons.... It's
like hitting a fly with a sledgehammer.

I absolutely agree.

I don't allow Java to run unless I enable it on a per site basis in IE and
FF.
