Re: [WSG] strange css behavior
Parse error is corrected. Can't change the html however in typepad so if that is the cause of the problem I'm stuck with it. I can only add new css at the bottom of the css page.

I'm wondering if this gives anyone an idea what I should look at. Correct the parse error on li a:hover to validate the CSS. And comment out or delete this ul class=module-list/ul to validate the markup. Then see if it does whatever it is that it is supposed to do.

RE: [WSG] strange css behavior
Hi Michael,
The problem appears to be that Internet Explorer gets confused by the link
being also referenced in the head section with the link tag. I think it
is assuming it has read the contents of the link (which it doesn't because I
traced HTTP requests). A simple test shows that this is the case. Copy the
HTML below into a file and clear your history in IE. When you first open the
page all links are blue. Refreshing the page turns the RSS links red.

RE: [WSG] strange css behavior
It will be a universal issue of a link appearing as visited when it is also
referenced in a link tag in the head section in IE 7. This is not really an
RSS issue (as far as I know).
