It's odd, I know. I couldn't find it on the W3C site. I thought I saw it somewhere being used to describe how to apply :hover styling from within <body> tags.

Here are valid examples...
p:hover table:hover div.hover
p.menu1.hover table.menu1.hover div.menu1.hover

You cannot apply hover effects inline.
You could apply a class to a single link, but assuming you don't want to do that I believe you only option is a little javascript.

JAB, I think you meant to use : where you used . in that second group, right?
p.menu1:hover table.menu1:hover div.menu1:hover
Still, they cannot be applied inline or "within <body> tags" as the original poster said.
