Change hover colour

HTML & CSS
1

Hi all,

I have the following inline css:

<a href="/about" target="_blank" style="text-decoration: none; color: #ffffff;">About</a>

This sets the colour of the link by I also need to set the colour of the hover state. Can someone show me how to do this using inline css (it’s for an email newsletter).

Thanks in advance.

No, I’m afraid not—because it’s impossible! Unfortunately you can’t set hover styles inline. You can embed styles in the document <head>, but not many email clients will honor those styles.

Here’s a guide to supported CSS, including :hover: https://www.campaignmonitor.com/css/
