Best solution: don't use hover buttons!

: Hello!
:
: I am trying to help someone who has a web site with menu
buttons created by
: FrontPage and using Java. The buttons used to change color
when you placed
: the mouse over them, but since the IE update that makes
you click to
: activate ActiveX controls, etc, the buttons do not work
unless clicked on.
: The buttons use the fphover.class and fphoverx.class
files.
:
: I have Googled and read for hours, trying many different
"fixes" that
: supposedly work but never do.
:
: Here is the code from a sample test page:
:
: <html>
: <head>
: <title>test page </title>
: <base TARGET="main">
: <meta name="robots" content="NOINDEX">
: <meta name="rating" content="GENERAL">
: <style fprolloverstyle>A:hover {color: #0000FF;
text-decoration: underline;
: font-weight: bold}
: </style>
: </head>
: <body leftmargin="5" topmargin="10" link="#0000FF">
: <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
style="border-collapse:
: collapse" bordercolor="#111111" width="152"
id="AutoNumber1">
: <tr>
: <td width="100%">
: <applet code="fphover.class" width="150" height="41">
: <param name="color" value="#000080">
: <param name="hovercolor" value="#0000FF">
: <param name="textcolor" value="#FFFF00">
: <param name="effect" value="glow">
: <param name="fontstyle" value="regular">
: <param name="fontsize" value="14">
: <param name="target" value="main">
: <param name="bgcolor" value="#000080">
: <param name="font" value="TimesRoman">
: <param name="text" value="Show My IP Address">
: <param name="url" valuetype="ref"
: value="http://dynamic.thisgoessomewhere.com/checkip.html">
: <a
href="http://dynamic.thisgoessomewhere.com/checkip.html">Show
My IP
: Address</a>
: </applet></td>
: </tr>
: </table>
: </body>
: </html>
:
: How can I stop this wonderful new behavior? All of the
fixes I have tried so
: far have not made my IE6 browser with the latest Sun Java
work properly. Is
: still have to click to activate.
