div background color, to change onhover

by

The “a:hover” literally tells the browser to change the properties for the <a>-tag, when the mouse is hovered over it. What you perhaps meant was “the div:hover” instead, which would trigger when the div was chosen.

Just to make sure, if you want to change only one particular div, give it an id (“<div id='something'>“) and use the CSS “#something:hover {...}” instead. If you want to edit a group of divs, make them into a class (“<div class="else">“) and use the CSS “.else {...}” in this case (note the period before the class’ name!)
