Question

I’ve got this codes:

ul
{ list-style-type: none;
  margin:0;
  padding:0;
  overflow: hidden;
}

a:link,a:visited
{ display: block;
  width: 240px;
  background: transparent url(./style/black2.jpg) ;
  text-align: right;
  text-transform: uppercase;
  text-decoration: none;
    height: 40px;
    color: #ffffff
}

a:hover,a:active
{ background: transparent;
  color: #000000
}

and this one

<ul>
        <li><a href="http://127.0.0.1:4001/wbdemo/pages/abc.php"><h99>Home<h99/></a></li>
        <li><a href="#"><h99>Home</h99></a></li>
        <li><a href="#"><h99>Home</h99/></a></li> 
      <li><a href="#"><h99>Home</h99/></a></li> 
      <li><a href="#"><h99>Home</h99/></a></li>
</ul>

Everything that has got links “hovers” now.
I want to limit a:hover just to the menu section and seperate it from the rest.

Answer 1

If you want to style only the links which are inside <ul> element, you should code it like this:

ul a:hover {
    /* here goes the styles */
}
