First, you can enable a different color (and lots of other things), by using the :hover CSS psuedo tag. If you do so on a hyperlink, then you're all done: the CSS provides the hover effect, and the hyperlink takes care of clicking to a new URL. No Javascript required, I might note.

Example, this code makes anchor tags look like buttons:

<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
a:link, a:visited
{
  float: left;
  margin: 2px 5px 2px 5px;
  padding: 2px;
  width: 100px;
  border-top: 1px solid #cccccc;
  border-bottom: 1px solid black;
  border-left: 1px solid #cccccc;
  border-right: 1px solid black;
  background: #cccccc;
  text-align: center;
  text-decoration: none;
  font: normal 10px Verdana;
  color: black;
}

a:hover
{
  background: #eeeeee;
}

a:active
{
  border-bottom: 1px solid #eeeeee;
  border-top: 1px solid black;
  border-right: 1px solid #eeeeee;
  border-left: 1px solid black;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<a href="#">Button 1</a><a href="#">Button 2</a><a href="#">Button 3</a>
</body>
</html>
