Question

I am trying to do a really simple button using a div.
Everything’s fine, except that when the mouse cursor goes over the button, the text is supposed to turn black, and the background-color white…But currently, I have to put the mouse cursor over the text to see it turn black.

Here’s my CSS code :

.pledges_boutons {
    width: 157px;
    color: #fff;
    font-family: "Arial Black", Gadget, sans-serif;
    font-size: 11px;
    height: 18px;
    text-align: center;
    margin-right: 10px;
    margin-left: 10px;
    margin-top: 5px;
    margin-bottom: 5px;
    text-decoration: none;
    display: block;
    background-color: #868686;
    }

and Hover :

.pledges_boutons:hover {
    color: #000;
    cursor: pointer;
    background-color: #fff;
}​

HTML:

<div class="pledges_boutons">
   <a href="http://www.google.com">Click here</a>
</div>​

Here’s my fiddle

Thank you!

Answer 1

Replace:

.pledges_boutons:hover {

With:

.pledges_boutons:hover, .pledges_boutons:hover a {

That will do the trick 😉
