fade in link hover?

[ekoice]

.test a:link, .test a:visited {
-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease;
-moz-transition: all 0.5s ease;
-ms-transition: all 0.5s ease;
-o-transition: all 0.5s ease;
transition: all 0.5s ease;
}

.test a:hover, .test a:active {
-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease;
-moz-transition: all 0.5s ease;
-ms-transition: all 0.5s ease;
-o-transition: all 0.5s ease;
transition: all 0.5s ease;
}

and to add a nice movement to  :hover
just add

margin-left: 5px;

 

If i wanted the fade in and out effect on buttons would i just add the same code?

yes , and you can play with it

as @eNvy was sain` you can give to :link , :visited {opacity: 0.5;} and to :hover , :active { opacity: 1;} , so when you hover the button it will lighten up
and you can use opacity with the transitions and you`l have a nice effect ...

Happy coding!
