Hej Eksperter

Er det muligt at sætte en hover på en span?

Eks.

    <style>
.listitem
{
Color: #0072CB;
Font-family: Verdana, Arial, "Trebuchet MS", Sans-serif;
Font-size: 10px;
Text-decoration: none;
}
.listitem:hover
{
Color: #0072CB;
Text-decoration: underline;
}
</style>

<TD colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="240">
