A link doesn't stop being a link just because it is a hovered, focused or active link. :link and :visited are mutually exclusive (since :link means "unvisited link") but the other pseudo-classes stack (with them and each other). The only time you need to worry about focus/hover/active applying when link/visited don't is when you have a non-linked anchor (which you shouldn't have these days since `id` on a heading or div/section/etc makes more sense). -- David Dorward http://dorward.me.uk ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org *******************************************************************
