You can use a CSS like this:

a:visited
{
display: none;
}

Philipp has answered the "how", but would you indulge my curiosity
and answer the "why"?

Can't answer for Mira, but I've done that a few times, going back to
pre-CSS days.

My newsreader very helpfully hides messages and threads I've already
read or killfiled (though I can manually override it). The exact same
behaviour is one such application on the Web.

Sounds like a good use for a user stylesheet for reading usenet on the
web (such as with google groups).

I haven't considered that. In any case, it wasn't an option in 1995
when I implemented it.

Greetings. I am trying to write a function which toggles the display of a certain class of <div> elements in an HTML page. The CSS file initially sets some classes to "display: none", and others to "display: block". The problem I am encountering is that when the JavaScript interpreter starts up initially, all style.displays are null. Thus the following code is not effective: function toggleAll(itemname) {
