making #id 's a.hover ???

[rubychyld]

I am using css id's to format some dynamically generated forms. Some of this dynamic text is hyperlinked. Is there any way to make something like this hover?

<span id=&quot;message1&quot;>
<a id=&quot;link&quot; href=&quot;myfile.htm&quot;>mylink</a>
</span>

#link {
color:black
}

how can I do this with an ID? I can't use css class properties...........
#link.hover {
color:red
}

Thanks for trying to help,
