# css Issue

 * I’m just beyond newbie when it comes to css (at least I think so, but now I’m
   not so sure). I’m trying to do something simple, and it’s not working.
    ` .foo{
   font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif; color: #003399 }
 * .foo a:link {
    text-decoration: none; color: #003399; }
 * .foo a:hover {
    text-decoration: none; color: #003300; }
 * .foo a:visited {
    text-decoration: none; color: #003399; }
 * Everything but a:visited is working. For some reason that just won’t change. 
   I’ve got several other instances of a:visited in my css, and they do work. I’ve
   gone through everything to make sure it’s all closed, nothing odd or out of the
   ordinary. Just this one instance doesn’t work. Any ideas?

   messed up.

 * Well, when I’m testing your links it’s working for me..

 * Testing my links is more ambition than I had hoped for.
    The links I’m currently
   working on are the Uncategorized & Comments >> link area. In the style.css the
   offending code begins at line 188 (at least by BBEdits count). I’m using Firefox
   1.0 on OSX for testing right now, but the visited link color is still default
   in Safari and MacIE, in otherwords; no change. I’ve no idea how this looks on
   a WinBox yet. Does this still show as working properly for you?

 * Try putting a:visited in the CSS before a:hover.

 * Done. No change.
    It’s frustrating, because I’m almost sure I did it right. But
   as I said, I’m just beyond newbie, so maybe I didn’t.

 * Well currently the visited color is the same as the link 🙂

 * After thinking about this for a few hours now, I’m beginning to wonder if this
   might not be a Mac display issue. Of course I’m assuming your on a Windows box.
   Because no matter what I do, I can’t get rid of that default Puke Pink color 
   for the visited link.
    Maybe I’ll get lucky and another Mac user will come along
   and help me out.

 * The css code is on about line 198 of stlye.css. It’s not ‘foo’ as I used in the
   example above, it’s postmetadata. Sorry about that confusion. I was only using
   foo as an example.
