Topic: Problem with standard linkcolor in CSS

hi there

I've got following CSS sheet for the corp. I work for:

a:active  

{

FONT-FAMILY: times, sans-serif;

color: #000000;

font-size: 8pt;

font-weight: normal;

text-decoration: none;

}



a.link       

{

color: #000000;

FONT-FAMILY: times, sans-serif;

font-size: 8pt;

font-weight: normal;

text-decoration: none;

}



a:visited 

{

FONT-FAMILY: times, sans-serif;

color: #000000;

font-size: 8pt;

font-weight: normal;

text-decoration: none;

}



a:hover

{

FONT-FAMILY: times, sans-serif;

color: #32427E;

font-size: 8pt;

font-weight: normal;

text-decoration: none;

}

All works fine, but if the user came up the first time he see
just the blue marked links....but I decided to have all so in
my CSS....

How can I get the right result?

thx in advice

Change the order:

:link
:visited
:hover
:active

I think it's because you have a.link instead of a:link defined in the stylesheet

that should do the trick
I:.

hi

yes it works now. I thank you very much...

a:link

worked

Just to add one more thing, you could shorten this a little bit if you wanted. (You probably know this but in any case)

a:active  

{FONT-FAMILY: times, sans-serif;

color: #000000;

font-size: 8pt;

font-weight: normal;

text-decoration: none;}

to:

a:active  {

font:normal 8pt times, sans-serif;

color: #000000; 

text-decoration: none;}

And even one more shortening bit -

change #000000 to #000 (anytime you have 3 sets of the same letter/number, you can omit the 2nd of each - s0 #00CC33 could be written #0C3, etc...)

very great infos, DL and Cprompt...

thanx

You could shorten it even more:

a:link, a:visited, a:hover, a:active {
font: normal 8pt times, sans-serif;
text-decoration: none;
}

a:link, a:visited, a:active {
color: #000;
}

a:hover {
color: #32427E;
}



edit: the code is correct now.
