Question

Answer 1

CSS has different pseudo selector by which you can achieve such effect. In your case you can use

:active : if you want background color only when the button is clicked and don't want to persist.

:focus: if you want background color untill the focus is on the button.

button:active{
    background:olive;
}

and

button:focus{
    background:olive;
}
