Link / Hover links not working as should

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:

Am i completely missing something here? I want the link to be Red and when you rollover/hover it goes Black. Then once clicked i want the link to remain Red but instead it goes black.

[CODE]a img {
border: none;
text-decoration;
}

a {
outline: none;
}

a:link {
text-decoration: none;
outline: none;
color: #990000;
}

a:hover {
text-decoration: none;
color: #000000;
}

a:visited {
text-decoration: none;
}[/CODE]

I can attached the entire CSS file if there might be something in there that’s causes a conflict.

Appreciate any help – its got me stumped

@skilled1May 13.2009 — this is what you need [CODE]a img {
border: none;
text-decoration;
}

a {
outline: none;
}

a:link {
text-decoration: none;
outline: none;
color: #990000;
}

a:hover {
text-decoration: none;
color: #000000;
}

a:visited {
text-decoration: none; color: #990000;
}[/CODE]

@adam_fakeauthorMay 14.2009 — That's the thing - i've tried that and it still doesn't revert the hover color to Black. I keeps the visited link Red.
