I have this code in my header
Quote
quote:



a.coolLink { color: blue; text-decoration:none; }
a.coolLink:hover { text-decoration:underline; }


a:visited { text-decoration: none; color: #660033;}
a:link { text-decoration: none; color: #660033;}

a:hover { text-decoration: underline; color: #D50019; }
a:active { text-decoration: none; }


and then I have some links that are like
a:link takes priority over a.coolLink without :link. Try a.coolLink:link, or put the coolLink classes after rather than before the rest of the a pseudoclasses...

I figured it out. I forgot to have a a.CoolLink:visited as well, so thats why all the other ones were over ruling it.

laugh ! Thanx

a.menulink:link {
color: #ff9900;
text-decoration: none;
}
a.menulink:hover {
text-decoration: underline;
}
a.menulink:visited {
color: #ff9900;
text-decoration: none;
}
a.menulink:active {
color: #ff9900;
text-decoration: none;
}
now what happens is, some links when u hover over them underline the link, and some dont.

However, I noticed that when u click on a link that the Hover affect works, and try put ur mouse back over the same link, the hover underline doesnt work anymore.

It has something to do with visited I guess.

N/M figured the whole thing out, lol

for a.menulink:visited, u cant have text-decoration: none;

because what will happen is, when u visit a link, and then retry to put ur mouse over the link, it wont underline it, because the visited: part has already been declared for no underlines...

Totally makes sense now.. wink

CSS is tricky! laugh BUT I LOVE IT

Actually you should put them in this order:

link
visited
hover
active

in order to get visited links with both a hover and an active effect smile
