Can't :hover whole line of a table - html

Question

When I pass mouse over a cell of the table, I want to highlight the whole line! But with the code that I have all I can to highlight just one cell! This is my table:
<table id="myTable" class="tablesorter">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Title1</th>
<th>Title2</th>
<th>Title3</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Bach</td>
<td>42526</td>
<td>Dec 10, 2002 5:14 AM</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Doe</td>
<td>243155</td>
<td>Jan 18, 2007 9:12 AM</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Conway</td>
<td>35263</td>
<td>Jan 18, 2001 9:12 AM</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
and css is
/*Table sort*/
table.tablesorter {
font-family:arial;
background-color: #e6EEEE;
font-size: 8pt;
width: 100%;
text-align: left;
}
table.tablesorter thead tr th, table.tablesorter tfoot tr th {
background-color: #e6EEEE;
border: 1px solid #FFF;
font-size: 8pt;
padding: 4px;
}
table.tablesorter thead tr .header {
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center right;
cursor: pointer;
}
table.tablesorter tbody td {
color: #3D3D3D;
padding: 4px;
background-color: #FFF;
vertical-align: top;
}
table.tablesorter tbody tr.odd td {
background-color:#F0F0F6;
}
table.tablesorter thead tr .headerSortUp {
}
table.tablesorter thead tr .headerSortDown {
}
table.tablesorter thead tr .headerSortDown, table.tablesorter thead tr .headerSortUp {
/*background-color: #8dbdd8;*/
background-color: #e6EEEE;
}
table.tablesorter tbody tr :hover {
background: #8dbdd8;
}
What is missing in my CSS to highlight whole line?

Answer 1

You simply need to remove a space in your selector:
table.tablesorter tbody tr:hover
/* ^ space was removed */
Because you left a comment saying "it's not working":
See here, where it works: http://jsfiddle.net/thirtydot/Pe6Xe/
Per your edit, this will work:
table.tablesorter tbody tr:hover td {
background: #8dbdd8;
}
The issue was that the background-color on your tds was covering the changed background-color on the tr hover.

Answer 2

You need to remove the space between tr and :hover. As in, change this:
tr :hover
to:
tr:hover
