IE6 link colors & CSS override (vs. Firefox)


Example of my CSS follows:

<style type="text/css" media="screen">

BODY { color: white }
A:link { color: 66CCFF; }
A:visited { color: CC66FF; }
A:active { color: CC66FF; }
A:hover { color: white; background-color: #0099cc; text-decoration:
#000000;}

..override a:link { color: CC66FF; }
..override a:visited { color: 66CCFF; }
..override a:active { color: 66CCFF; }
..override a:hover { color: blue; background-color: #0099cc;
text-decoration: #000000;}
</style>

HTML with image where IE does not apply the CSS link visited color:

<tr align="middle">
<td>
<a href="bigphoto.html" title="Example: photo1" alt="Example: photo1">
<img src="images/smallphoto.jpg" /></a>

</td>
</tr>

HTML showing override object:

<td class="override" align="center" bgcolor="006600">
<font size="1" color="white" face="helvetica, arial">
<b>
<a href="/contact.html">Contact Page</a>
</b>
</font>
</td>
Appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks for reminder. Got em mixed up.It's been awhile since I've posted to
nntp news. Was thinking cross-posting was bad. But now I understand why
cross-posting is desirable and multi-posting is not.

Still looking fo answers to my previous Q's. Researching news archives and
Googling the web. If I find anything will post solution(s) here to share
with others.

not checking, but could your problem be the omission of the hash sign
in front of the color code?

as in
color: #66ccff
