Can I make the hover effects stick even after "unhovering"

I was just wondering if there's any way to make the hover effects stick even after you've stopped hovering over an element. I have a couple of ideas where I could use this functionality.

I don't believe there's any "proper" way to do it without some form of scripting to change CSS dynamically. Though, I could be wrong. I've seen it spoofed in some ways before but, to be honest, using a few lines of JavaScript would be a better solution and more browser-friendly, I think.
