Can you send me a gist or something so that i can see your code?

Hi Cory, I’ve tested your script but on my system, Win 7 64 Bit with IE 9 I can just see the list of all the divs, no rotation at all. What am I missing? Thanks for reply.

Is there a way to stylize the buttons and place them where I want? They’re currently floating outside of my box and I’d like to contain them inside.

Ya, it looks great either way. I’m working on a friend’s site. [www.24-7transcripts.com] Hopefully it’ll be up and running shortly. But then again, given how complex I like to make things, maybe not! lol

Cool. It’s hard for me to know what you mean by the hover effect w/o seeing it in action. But that sounds smart. If it’s causing too much complexity, it’s probably not worth it. After all, it ‘s just a visual flourish.

Yes, your initial reply fixed that issue, thanks! I think I may have to give up on the fade effect tho because of all of the complexity I added w/ the hover effect.

You should set the `ul` height to be at least as tall as your tallest quote (i.e. `li`). That should fix the page jumping issue. Is that how you’re doing it?

Unfortunately because of complexity of growing out the box on hover, I think that’s where I’m having issues. When I moved the styling to the ul, on hover the li and ul boxes would not align. So it would add another box just a little offset below it and then grow that out. I couldn’t for the life of me figure out how to align the two elements.

I added the transitions because I added a hover effect that grows out the box to show the longer version of the quote.

Sounds like you’re on the right track.

If you looking for the styles to persist and only the words change/fade. Then, you need to apply those styles to the `ul/ol` rather than the `li`.

While, I’m at it. That CSS you pasted in looks sorta odd. Why the transitions? They shouldn’t be needed. Also, the `top` and `left` seem odd unless you’re absolutely positioning something. The rest of the stuff I’d move to the `ul/ol`.
