Visited link rollover not working... - 6/1/2006 11:37:22
I'm working on a simple web page with a very simple CSS Style Sheet. I had defined the link colors (link, hover, visited, active) and set the rollover feature to only underline links when the mouse rolled over them. This was working fine until I changed the color of my visited links, and now the rollover no longer works on visited links.
Here is my CSS code:
body {
background-color: #d7d2c2;
margin-left: 0px;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-right: 0px;
margin-bottom: 0px;
}
body,td,th {
color: #000000;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
}
a:link {
color: #b06239;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover {
color: #c6935f;
text-decoration: underline;
}
a:visited {
color: #909090;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:active {
text-decoration: none;
color: #C6935F;
}
.survey_footer {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
}
Can anyone tell me why this is happening? Thanks.

Nevermind....
I figured it out. I had to switch the order of the link definitions in the CSS file.

A common remebering trick is the LoVe-HAte rule:
Link,Visited,Hover,Active in that order.

Never used it. Never had any problems *not* using it in terms of validation, etc.
Can one expect issues not using it?

Donkey's right actually - there seems to be competing versions but the LVHFA should trump LVFHA (if you want the Focus effect to have precedence over the hover effect). If you tend to have the focus and hover the same then it doesn't really matter.
