Hello,
This may seem stupid to ask, but I have done on many css coding
#div_iv a:hover
but for darn reason, it does not seem to work now, Googled with results such as
a.hover #div_iv
#div_iv:hover
What exactly is wrong.
Thanks Jean

Remove the underscore from your CSS.
div#iv a:hover
Then HTML:
<div id="iv"><a href="URL">sometext</a></div>

Your CSS code makes no sense like this, it says something like: select the hover pseudoclass of a link that is in an element `iv` that is a child of something with the ID `div`. To match your HTML, the CSS might look like: `div#iv a:hover` (select the hover pseudoclass of a link in the div element which has id 'iv').

If you specify a style using #div_iv a:hover, you will see the effect in a code like this:
<div id="div_iv">
<a href="#">My Link</a>
</div>
If it doesn't work, check in your CSS file if you do not override this declaration, by specifying another link style declaration after this one.

The reason it was not working is because the id="div_iv" should have been in the href tag
darn me!!!

I don't see how this can work with the CSS code that you posted in your question. If the a-element has the id `div_iv`, your CSS should look like `a#div_iv:hover`. Can you post the relevant CSS and HTML snippets of your code?

If you are trying to make something in the entire DIV, then use following code:
#divID div:hover
or, if it does not work,
div#divID div:hover
Then, use this HTML code:
<div id="divID">Enter stuff and <a href="link.html">links</a> here.</div>
