paddster7 -> Internet Explorer link colors (12/5/2007 20:17:22)
At the following site (http://www.tropical-yacht-repair.com/), which was made by Dreamweaver CS3, is a single "Under Construction" image. If you look at the source code for this very simple web page, you will see that specific colors have been designated for link, visited, hover & active link colors. When previewing this web page with Firefox, Safari, Navigator, Opera, Camino & SeaMonkey, the correct link colors are being displayed. However, when using Internet Explorer, version 7.0.6000.16546, the default IE link colors are being displayed. (Blue - link; Purple - visited) Can you give me any ideas how to get IE to display the designated colors for links, without causing the link colors in the other browsers to break. Thanks.

Ok here you go, this should get around IE's stupidity:

<style type="text/css">
<!--
img {border:none;}
.imagelink img{border: 1px solid pink;}
.imagelink:visited {border: 1px solid orange;}
.imagelink:focus img, .imagelink:hover img, .imagelink:active img{border: 1px solid green;}
.imagelink:hover {color: red; /* irrelevant definition to overcome IE bug */}

-->
</style>
</head>

<body>
<a href="#" class="imagelink"><img src="http://www.tropical-yacht-repair.com/images/under-construction.jpg" width="680" height="492" alt="Under Construction" /></a>
</body>
</html>
