CSS CSS Selectors Selectors - Beyond the Basics Styling Form Buttons and Links with Attribute Selectors

Cursor: pointer for buttons.

Why don't we use a hover selector (pseudo-selector?) for the button inputs. Since the style happens when we hover over the buttons?

This is a really good question. Personally, I would add thecursor:pointer to the:hover selector, but I'd love to hear the reasons for not using that in this example! I suspect it might just be to make the example a little simpler, rather than having to use three attribute selectors with 3 hover selectors?
