I am trying to display a preview of sheet music listed on an ordered list. I can only get to display the image when hovering on the < li > element, but I would like to only see the image when hovering on the first section of each row ("[ view ]"). I've tried modifying different things, but I can't get it right. This is how my experiment looks so far: http://www.antonioromo.com/newsite/music.html
I'm sure I have redundant code and that I probably just need to change something simple, but I'm no expert.
This is the way I'm listing items:
<div id="SheetMusicStore">
<ol class="enlarge">
<li>
<span class="view">[ view ]</span>
<span class="preview"><img src="images/01gnw-tn.png" alt="Just Another Dusk" /><br />Just Another Dusk (Good Night Wishes)</span>
<span class="name">Just Another Dusk (Good Night Wishes)</span>
<span class="price">$3.99 BUY</span>
</li>
<li>
<span class="view">[ view ]</span>
<span class="preview"><img src="images/02gnw-tn.png" alt="My Nightlight" /><br />My Nightlight (Good Night Wishes)</span>
<span class="name">My Nightlight (Good Night Wishes)</span>
<span class="price">$3.99 BUY</span>
</li>
</ol>
</div>
This is my CSS code:
/** Sheet Music Store **/
#SheetMusicStore {
width: 500px;
margin: 40px auto;
}
ol.enlarge{
margin-left:0;
font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, Sans-serif;
font-size: 1em;
color: #999;
padding: 10px 20px;
-moz-box-shadow: inset 0 2px 2px #582E58;
-webkit-box-shadow: inset 0 2px 2px #582E58;
box-shadow: inset 0 2px 2px #582E58;
border-radius: 6px;
-moz-border-radius: 6px;
-webkit-border-radius: 6px;
background: url(../images/sheet-bg.png) repeat 0 0 scroll;
color: #AAA;
}
ol.enlarge li{
position: relative;
z-index: 0; /*resets the stack order of the list items - later we'll increase this*/
text-shadow: 0 1px 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, .6);
background: transparent url(../images/sheet-item-bg.png) repeat-x bottom left scroll;
padding: 5px 0 7px 0;
list-style-position: inside;
font-size: 12px;
}
ol.enlarge img{
background-color: #eae9d4;
padding: 6px;
-webkit-box-shadow: 0 0 6px rgba(132, 132, 132, .75);
-moz-box-shadow: 0 0 6px rgba(132, 132, 132, .75);
box-shadow: 0 0 6px rgba(132, 132, 132, .75);
-webkit-border-radius: 4px;
-moz-border-radius: 4px;
border-radius: 4px;
}
ol.enlarge span.preview{
position: absolute;
left: -9999px;
background-color: #eae9d4;
padding: 10px;
font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Helvetica, 'Droid Sans', sans-serif;
font-size: .9em;
text-align: center;
color: #495a62;
-webkit-box-shadow: 0 0 20px rgba(0,0,0, .75));
-moz-box-shadow: 0 0 20px rgba(0,0,0, .75);
box-shadow: 0 0 20px rgba(0,0,0, .75);
-webkit-border-radius: 8px;
-moz-border-radius: 8px;
border-radius: 8px;
}
ol.enlarge li:hover{
color: #EEE;
z-index: 50;
}
ol.enlarge li:hover .view{
color:#FFFFCC !important;
}
ol.enlarge .view:hover{
cursor: pointer;
}
ol.enlarge span.preview img{
padding: 2px;
background: #ccc;
}
ol.enlarge li:hover span.preview{
top: -300px; /*the distance from the bottom of the thumbnail to the top of the popup image*/
left: 300px; /*distance from the left of the thumbnail to the left of the popup image*/
z-index: 50;
}
ol.enlarge .price {
width: 62px;
height: 16px;
position: absolute;
top: 7px;
right: 0;
border-radius: 8px;
-moz-border-radius: 8px;
-webkit-border-radius: 8px;
background: transparent url(../images/buy-bg.png) repeat 0 0 scroll;
margin: 0 0 0 10px;
font-size: 10px;
text-align: center;
line-height: 16px;
text-shadow: none;
color: #BBB;
text-decoration: none;
z-index: 0;
}
ol.enlarge .price:hover {
color: #EEE;
}
Also, I don't know why there is a large blank space left at the very bottom of the page. Is it created by the elements created on the fly? Thanks in advance for any help!

You could nest the preview
inside the view
element. And just change the
ol.enlarge li:hover span.preview
to something like
span.view:hover span.preview
here is a demo on jsfiddle
