Mathew is asking the pertinent question.
There are five pseudo selectors to consider on links:
:link
:visited
:focus
:hover
:active
By applying the font attributes to link and visited you leave the others
undefined. You could apply the attributes to all states, although the more
efficient solution is to only use pseudo selectors to apply attributes you wish
to differ between these states, anything else ought to be set to the element or
inherited from a parent.
.navbar {
font: ...
}
.navbar a {
text-decoration: none; /* applied to all link states */
}
.navbar a:link {
color: blue;
}
.navbar a:visited {
color: purple;
}
Hope that helps.
