Is there a way that i can have a onclick in css?

Question

Is there a :hover selector that can be used when an 'a' tag is clicked it causes it to change color and then turns back when the click is released?

Any help is much appreciated. :D

Use :active selector, this is used to select the active element, in this case the a element.

a:active{
  color:purple;
}

<a>Click Me</a>
