Wordpress Menu Hover CSS

Question

I'm working on the following site and cannot figure out how to make the menu items background a different color on hover: http://tinyurl.com/q87z34o

I'm using the following CSS and it is not working:

.menu-dropdown a.level1 > span, 
.menu-dropdown span.level1 > span:hover {color:#000;}

I'ms sure that I'm missing some small, but it's alluding me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

.menu-dropdown a.level1 > span:hover, 
.menu-dropdown span.level1 > span:hover {color:#000;}

Adding :hover to both spans did the trick.
