I want to change color of link button so I made CSS like this:

.stylink 
a
{ font:10px; color:white;  }

a:hover
{ font:12px; color:#ff0; }

I have link button:

<asp:LinkButton ID="lbtn_gvinfo" runat="server" 
Text="arshad" CssClass="stylink" Font-Underline="false" ></asp:LinkButton>

This a:hover property of CSS works but a dosn't work. When I point cursor on link button it becomes yellow, but after that it remains blue.

Rather than a .stylink a selector, try .stylink a:link to set the color of a hyperlink. You may also wanted to take a look at the a:visited and a:active selectors to handle the "has already been clicked on or visited", and "has the current keyboard (tab) focus" cases, respectively.
