Why not? The h:commandLink tag renders an html <a> tag. It doesn't
actually use the normal <a> behaviour; instead it attaches javascript to
the onclick of the anchor that causes a form submit and suppresses the
normal result of clicking on the link. However because the html tag *is*
an <a>, css should be able to use the hover pseudo-attribute on it.
Am I missing something here?

Oh yes. I believe I could do that but it does not really solve the hover
issue. Does it?

I have a html link styled with CSS (see below).

background:transparent

I want to replace the <a/> with an commandLink and maintain the
style. However, just switching out the tag breaks the style. I can
add the style to inline to the commandLink by adding the style
attribute. However, I am not sure how to add the hover style?
You mention "inline style" on the commandLink. Have you considered
using the "styleClass" attribute to assign a css *class* rather than
an inline style?
