There are two problems here:

 1. you left out the "i" in "visited".  (The somewhat misnamed
    "Javascript Console" in Firefox 1.5 would tell you this, since it
    contains CSS parser errors too.)

 2. 'border: 1px' is a shorthand that specifies the default values for
    'border-color' and 'border-style'.  Since the default for
    'border-style' is 'none', you have no border.  You should use
    'border: 1px solid #aaa', etc.  (Looking at the style rules in DOM
    Inspector helped with this, since the style rules' contents shown in
    DOM inspector have the contents expanded.)
