CSS rollover effects with RichFaces a4j:commandButton

I've not seen a useful, authoritative web resource which says how to reliably enable rollover effects on a4j:commandButton elements in RichFaces JSF content.

I have f开发者_运维技巧ound plenty of css resources re buttons, but then when they start talking about html I start wondering what the equivalent is in more recent web technologies.

Basically I want my buttons to look different on hover and then on click. I'd like to use images but client side js is out of scope for this q.

Use the following attributes as in this example below to your a4j:commandButton (have a look at the full list (v3.3.1.GA)):

<a4j:commandButton value="Submit" styleClass="ctlBtn"
                                    id="myCtlBtn" type="submit" style="margin-bottom: 5px;"
                                    reRender="allMyOtherplaces"
                                    onmouseover="this.className='ctlBtn btnHover'"
                                    onmousedown="this.className='ctlBtn btnDown'"
                                    onmouseup="this.className='ctlBtn'"
                                    onmouseout="this.className='ctlBtn'"
                                    onclick="this.className='ctlBtn btnDown'"
                                    oncomplete="this.className='ctlBtn'" />

And create classes ctlBtn, btnHover and btnDown in your included .css file.
