Hovering Over An Image Changes Html Background

Basically: div:hover { body{ background-image:(bg.png); } } This is logical code, I know it does not work, but its the best how I can show you my problem.

Solution 1:

Well what your trying to accomplish cannot be achieved that way using Css only, You can do it using jquery like this

$("#someDiv").hover(function(){
    $("body").css("background-image", "url('image_url')")
});

Solution 2:

In css ,You can not do this as "body" is parent element to "div" and it should come next to the element hovered to use the for format like

firstelement:hoversecond_element {/*styles*/} 

you can use jquery to achieve it

$("div").hover(function(){
    $("body").css("background", "url('url_of_image_here')")
});

or javascript

   elem = document.getElementById("ID");
   elem.addEventListener("mouseout", function(){   
      document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].style.backgroundImage="url()";
     });
