Stylesheets

Hi all!

I am using a style sheet in my pages, and my problem is that I would still like some links to light up even after they have been visited.

Right now the link itself is shown in dark green. Then when a user hovers over it, it gets lighter green, and when a user has clicked on the page, the link gets dark green again. Now when a user hovers over the same link again, it stays dark green, where I would like for it to turn light green again, so it's more obvious for the user that it's a link.

Does anybody have any idea on how to achieve that? Thanx!

This is a fantastic HTML site for beginners:

I'm positive you'll find the answer there.

Okay, thanx for the link, but does anybody have an answer, without me having to read the entire page the link refers to? (Not that I don't think it would be useful, coz I certainly do, atm I just don't have the time to)

You can use a CSS class to refer to the links:

example:

Code:

---


A.first {put your first set of styles here}
A.second {put your second set of styles here}

---

You can then refer to the classes
like this:

Code:

---


<a CLASS ="first" HREF = "http://www.some.url">click me</a>
<a CLASS = "second" HREF = "http://www.some.url">click me too</a>

---

Thanx again for the reply, but not that's not really what I'm looking for. My problem is that after a user has visited a link on one of my pages, I still want it to light up when I hover over it, instead of constantly remaining the color specified under the "visited" part of the link class definition in my css.

If I need this sort of functionality, I typically will set BOTH visited and new links to the same class.

I agree with monte96....Marcel, try experimenting
with the link properties, active and visited.
