It probably is working but you forgot to clear your history and maybe the cache so it is always 'visited'. Also, I forgot to say you may need or want to be sure and set a:link to what you want initially.

Hello once again thank you for the reply its working fine.....
I included the following code in css
a:link{
color : #51A951;
text-decoration:none;
font-weight:normal;
}

a:visited {
color: #51A951;
text-decoration: none;
font-weight: bolder;
}
after clearing private data its working fine.....
But after that if you click a link it will be okay....but if u click on another link it will also become bold.........
Could you please send me an answer....... shall I use java script
Please do reply..
