css Hover Effect does not work in IE 6 - css

I have a hover effect in css. It works correctly in all other browser except in ie6.
The problem is if I give a link then the hover works in that page but if I take href from the page hover doesn't works, please help me.

You can't use :hover on anything not a link in IE 6.
Here is the quote from quirksmode:
IE 5/6 supports both only on links. IE 7 supports :hover, but not
:active, on all elements.
You can find that on this page.

Maybe you could use Whatever:hover: http://www.xs4all.nl/~peterned/csshover.html

Suckerfish is a tried-and-true IE6 fix for :hover

IE and Psuedo Elements not working

I am using :before and :after but they are not showing in IE10 and below.
Here is the link to the site: wrdtempsite.com.au/da
When viewing dev tools (F12) all of the css is struck through... ?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
You may need to add empty CSS rule for :hover before adding rules for :before and :after
Check the below link, it deals with the same issue. hope it helps
::after on :hover does not work in IE
Why does IE10 require the presence of a p:hover {} rule for transitions to work on a pseudo element?
The issue was I had declared 0 0 no-repeat at the end; when I removed these it worked fine.
Thanks

How to show/hide content on click with CSS

I have put together this simple code for showing/hiding some content on click using CSS only. It works as I want it to in FF but wont work in Chrome or Safari (untested as yet in IE)
http://jsfiddle.net/fW3yW/
Can someone please tell me why it wont work in these browsers and suggest an alternative (using CSS only if possible)?
Here is the site where the code is being used - http://www.themontessoripeople.co.uk/montesori/?page_id=20#policies-list
Added tabindex, works in Chrome: http://jsfiddle.net/fW3yW/1/
From here: css focus not working in safari and chrome
jQuery method: http://jsfiddle.net/fW3yW/12/
You're abusing CSS. The :focus psuedo-class is meant for styling form elements that have focus, rather than for <a> links, where browsers might implement :focus differently, and then there's also the similar :active psuedo-class.
I suggest you do not hide anything by default with CSS, but use jQuery to hide the elements on-load, then use jQuery to create show/hide animations (easily done with a single line of code) when a link is clicked. It's a lot more elegant and works on more browsers.
You're using a CSS3 selector, with an XHTML doctype. I don't know that all browsers will handle CSS3 with an XHTML doctype tag - though the two specs aren't necessarily tied together.
Have you tried changing the doctype to indicate HTML5? (Then, of course, that brings up all kinds of HTML5shim questions...)
Use jQuery instead...way more reliable and elegant.

How can I solve this :before or :after issue in IE7?

I tried to add an image using :before in css. It worked fine in firefox 4 but when I tested it in IE 7,it didn't display me anything..How can I solve this issue in IE7?
#vimal; :before is css2.1 property which is not supported by ie7.
Check these for more:

IE7 doesn't support the :before pseudo class.
There is nothing you can do with CSS alone to make it work. You could possibly use a background-image on the li element itself.
You could mimic it with JavaScript.

:hover work on textarea in IE8?

I thought that the :hover pseudo-class only works on links in IE. This example proves this thought wrong when tested in IE8. How come?
In IE6, it only worked on a elements. That was fixed in newer versions.

How to apply dynamic CSS for the label in IE7

When the html is rendered in IE7, does it properly show
<span class="liforrent" id="lblPrice"></span>
or something similar?
If so, what does your css look like? Are you using something like css hacks which can get misinterpreted by IE7?
Edit: I suggest you download and install Internet Explorer Developer Toolbar to see what styles are put over the span tag in IE7 and resolve it that way.
