Remove ‘:hover’ CSS behavior from element

by

One method to do this is to add:

pointer-events: none;

to the element, you want to disable hover on.

(Note: this also disables javascript events on that element too, click events will actually fall through to the element behind ).

This seems to be much cleaner

/**
 * This allows you to disable hover events for any elements
*/
.disabled {
  pointer-events: none;  /* <----------- */
  opacity: 0.2;
}

.button {
  border-radius: 30px;
  padding: 10px 15px;
  border: 2px solid #000;
  color: #FFF;
  background: #2D2D2D;
  text-shadow: 1px 1px 0px #000;
  cursor: pointer;
  display: inline-block;
  margin: 10px;
}

.button-red:hover {
  background: red;
}

.button-green:hover {
  background:green;  
}
<div class="button button-red">I'm a red button hover over me</div>

<br />

<div class="button button-green">I'm a green button hover over me</div>

<br />

<div class="button button-red disabled">I'm a disabled red button</div>

<br />

<div class="button button-green disabled">I'm a disabled green button</div>
