Hi

 

I have been visiting this forum for several months but this is my first post - apologies if it is in the wrong thread.

 

I have just built my first site and I am reasonably chuffed with it. However I have just realised that the links do not change colour when you hover over them, per my instructions in the stylesheet. Or rather they do in IE8 but not in any other browser (just tried FF, Opera and Chrome so far).

 

Any suggestions on what I have done wrong and how I can correct this would be much appreciated.

 

Thank you in advance.

Got a link? or some relevant css? sounds like it could be a specificity problem?

Thanks

a:active needs to come after a:hover, so in your stylesheet you should change it to this

 

a:link,a:visited {
text-decoration: underline;
color:#333333;
}

a:hover {
text-decoration: underline;
color:#0082c8;
}

a:active{
text-decoration: underline;
color:#333333;
}

 

 

Also you have a stray close...

 

a:link,a:active,a:visited {

text-decoration: underline;

color:#333333;

}

 

 

} <----here

 

 

 

a:hover {

text-decoration: underline;

color:#0082c8;

}

Thanks very much - will look at that and see if it fixes it. Cheers.

That did it - thank you so much.

 

Oh, I am loving this forum!
