visited

Description

Sets the style of anchor (A) elements for previously visited links.

Remarks

The visited pseudo-class is often used in conjunction with others to define the various states of a link: active, link, and hover.

When the mouse is over a hyperlink to which the visited style has been applied, the hover pseudo-class takes precendence.

Using pseudo-classes on elements other than the A element has no effect.

Example

The following code sets unvisited links to red and visited links to blue. The example below uses a colon (:) to specify a pseudo-class.

A:link   { color: red }           /* unvisited link */
A:visited  { color: blue }       /* visited links */

Applies To

A
