if you want simply a change in css,as in google home page menu bar this will do the trick

 $('#panelroot > a').hover(
           function () {
        	   $(this).css("color","F8FAFC");
             },
           function () {
            	 $(this).css("color","#B7C9D7");
           }
       );
  
  });
