CSS3 Pseudo-class

In CSS, you'll be able to apply styles to elements in these states employing a special selector called a pseudo-class selector. It’s an odd name, but you will consider like elements in an exceedingly certain state belong to the identical class. However, category name isn’t within the markup—it’s something the browser keeps track of. So it’s kinda sort of a class…it’s a pseudo-class. Pseudo-class selectors are indicated by the colon (:) character. Most commonly used pseudo classes are explained below
1) :link
2) :visited
3) :hover
4) :active
5) :focus
6) :first-child
7) :lang
