Adding hover effects for links in image map (area)

I'm only a beginner in html and I would like to put hover effects for my image map. I have searched for lots of solutions but I only come up with solutions using script which I don't understand.

How does this script work? I tried using 

area:hover {
border: 1px solid white;
}

But it does not work.

The following JS and CSS makes image(map)s responsive and adds a hover effect to the areas.

var images = document.querySelectorAll('img[usemap]');
images.forEach( function(image) {
    var mapid = image.getAttribute('usemap').substr(1);
    var imagewidth = image.getAttribute('width');
    var imageheight = image.getAttribute('height');
    var imagemap = document.querySelector('map[name="'+mapid+'"]');
    var areas = imagemap.querySelectorAll('area');

    image.removeAttribute('usemap');
    imagemap.remove();

    // create wrapper container
    var wrapper = document.createElement('div');
    wrapper.classList.add('imagemap');
    image.parentNode.insertBefore(wrapper, image);
    wrapper.appendChild(image);

    areas.forEach( function(area) {
        var coords = area.getAttribute('coords').split(',');
        var xcoords = [parseInt(coords[0]),parseInt(coords[2])];
        var ycoords = [parseInt(coords[1]),parseInt(coords[3])];
        xcoords = xcoords.sort(function(a, b){return a-b});
        ycoords = ycoords.sort(function(a, b){return a-b});
        wrapper.innerHTML += "<a href='"+area.getAttribute('href')+"' title='"+area.getAttribute('title')+"' class='area' style='left: "+((xcoords[0]/imagewidth)*100).toFixed(2)+"%; top: "+((ycoords[0]/imageheight)*100).toFixed(2)+"%; width: "+(((xcoords[1] - xcoords[0])/imagewidth)*100).toFixed(2)+"%; height: "+(((ycoords[1] - ycoords[0])/imageheight)*100).toFixed(2)+"%;'></a>";
    });
});
img {max-width: 100%; height: auto;}

.imagemap {position: relative;}
.imagemap img {display: block;}
.imagemap .area {display: block; position: absolute; transition: box-shadow 0.15s ease-in-out;}
.imagemap .area:hover {box-shadow: 0px 0px 1vw rgba(0,0,0,0.5);}

What you're trying to do is not very simple, you will have to combine javascript and css or jquery to give the effect you want.

It's because the area element doesn't accept hover directly, unfortunately...

But the good news is that it was answered before here:
