CSS: styled a checkbox to look like a button, is there a hover?

Question

I\'ve created a small looking button to display instead of a checkbox. I was wondering if there was a way to also have a :hover look somehow? thanks

Answer 1

Do what Kelly said...

BUT. Instead of having the input positioned absolute and top -20px (just hiding it off the page), make the input box hidden.

example:

<input type="checkbox" hidden> 

Works better and can put it anywhere on the page.

Answer 2

Do this for a cool border and font effect:

#ck-button:hover {             /*ADD :hover */
    margin:4px;
    background-color:#EFEFEF;
    border-radius:4px;
    border:1px solid red;      /*change border color*/ 
    overflow:auto;
    float:left;
    color:red;                 /*add font color*/
}

Answer 3

#ck-button:hover {
    background:red;
}

Answer 4

it looks like you need a rule very similar to your checked rule

http://jsfiddle.net/VWBN4/3

#ck-button input:hover + span {
    background-color:#191;
    color:#fff;
}

and for hover and clicked state:

#ck-button input:checked:hover + span {
    background-color:#c11;
    color:#fff;
}

the order is important though.
