Upon clicking the link, my hover function was disabled

Hey everyone, I'm running into an issue on my website where a button is not working as expected. Initially, when I clicked the home page button, it changed the background color like I wanted. However, when I tried clicking it again, the background color remained the same and didn't change. I added this code snippet at the end of my CSS to try and fix it, but it still isn't working. Can someone help me troubleshoot this issue?

a:hover{ text-decoration: none; color:#45423D;}

Appreciate any assistance!

Answer №1

Did you run this test in a specific browser?
If you used Google Chrome and were using Dev-Tools, it's possible that you were in Responsive Device mode which can sometimes cause unusual behavior. You can identify this by:

If so, press CTRL + SHIFT + M. This should resolve the issue in Google Chrome.

Below is the code I tested and confirmed to be working:

<html>
    <head>
        <title>test</title>
        <style>
            a:hover { color:#45423D; background-color: red; }
       </style>
    </head>
    <body>
        <button><a>test</a></button>
    </body>
</html>

Answer №2

While reviewing your code, I noticed that you were attempting to modify the color attribute instead of the background color. The code provided by platin 21 should be effective in achieving the desired result. Your revised code should resemble the following: . a:hover { text-decoration: None; . background-color: #45423D; }

I hope this clarification helps.
