How to reference css in actionlink?

Question

A actionlink like:

<%= Ajax.ActionLink("more", "myControl", new { id = item.ID },
     new AjaxOptions { UpdateTargetId = "pop", OnComplete = "showdetail" },
     new { @class = "search" })

Then I set css in css file like:

a.search 
{...}
a:search.hover 
{...}

It doesn't work. If I change css name is css file as:

.search 
{...}

It seems work only in Firefox, not work in IE.

How to resolve this issue?

Your CSS appears to be incorrect; you will want to define it as:

a.search { ... }
a.search:hover { ... }
