Lisa,
Your selector:
#sidemainmenu a:visited
is stronger than:
#sidemainmenu .currentpage
You could bump the strength of your .currentpage selector like so (there
are other ways as well):
#sidemainmenu a.currentpage
Cheers,
Shawn

Ok, this has me completely stumped.
I have a menu list as follows:
<div id="sidemainmenu">
<ul>
<li><a href="../index.html
<view-source:http://www.diabetespolarflight.org/index.html>">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="donations.html
<view-source:http://www.diabetespolarflight.org/xhtml/donations.html>">Donations</a></li>
<li><a href="bios.html
<view-source:http://www.diabetespolarflight.org/xhtml/bios.html>">Biographies</a></li>
<li><a href="press.html
<view-source:http://www.diabetespolarflight.org/xhtml/press.html>">Press</a></li>
<li><a href="thanks.html
<view-source:http://www.diabetespolarflight.org/xhtml/thanks.html>"class="currentpage"><strong>Thanks</strong></a></li>
<li><a
href="#<view-source:http://www.diabetespolarflight.org/xhtml/thanks.html#>"class="currentpage"><strong>Thanks</strong></a></li>
</ul>
</div>
The selected link, say for example the thanks page needs to be a red
colour. This is achieved using the class #sidemainmenu .currentpage.
If the link is just a hash sign the styling works. Once i add a
correct href to an actual file it won't honour the red colour.
Why the hell is that?

Thanks
