    Using Chrome's Developer Tools, I've become fairly good at identifying elements I'd like to modify with CSS. However, hover and focus items continue to allude me. Is there an easy way to identify these elements with the Chrome Inspector?

    Thanks!

    Hi RavenManiac

    This have been driving me crazy too so I finally took a few minutes to check it out.

    Activate Inspect
    In the Styles Section there is a small area in the upper right hand corner
    :hov .cls
    you can select :hov and a pane will expand with checkboxes to force element state
    :focus :hover :active :visited

    Here is a link that has more information as well
    inspect

    I think I need to play with this a little bit. Let me know what you find!
