Hi all,
I am using the below css to define my url links

A { font-family:arial; font-size:12px;color:#006699; text-decoration: none; font-weight:bold;}
A:link { font-family:arial; font-size:12px;color:#006699; text-decoration: none; font-weight:bold;}
A:visited {font-family:arial; font-size:12px;color: #006699; text-decoration: none; font-weight:bold;}
A:hover {font-family:arial; font-size:12px;color: #ff9900; text-decoration: none;font-weight:bold;}
A:active {font-family:arial; font-size:12px;color:#ff9900; text-decoration: none; font-weight:bold;}

My problem is that the selected link isn't highlighting.

Hover works fine but when I jump to the url of link, it does so but selected isn't highlighted.

My question is why is this?

cheers
Steve

Well I think if you have a lot of extra code that you dont need for one....secondly Im not sure what exactly you are asking....

This is your code simplified

A:link, A:visited { font-family:arial; font-size:12px;color:#006699; text-decoration: none; font-weight:bold;}
A:hover, A:active {font-family:arial; font-size:12px;color: #ff9900; text-decoration: none;font-weight:bold;}

Ok thats great and i can see where you have improved the code although it still doesnt highlight the selected link.
Anyway ideas why this is?

By the selected link I mean I want the link to be highlighted that I select on one page, highlighted on the selected page.
lol

cheers for you input though.

ah...well I think what you want to do then is change the coding for the link on that page....you could make it so that it is not a link and have it shown with the color you want..... or make a seperate class like "active" and in your CSS make that class the colors you want and just place the calss in on that page and link you want to be highlighted....

or are you talking about having the link highlighted by a solid color like as in highlighting something on paper with a highlighter......

is any of this helping??? lol

lol. im not sure if were on the same wave length. LIke im distant i'd say. lol

The highlighter way sounds good.
I thought it was quite easy to just have the link highlighted on the called page that is the same link that was selected on the callnig page. lol are you with this lol

Yeah , i think your helping.

Have you checked out this site.... http://css.maxdesign.com.au/listamatic/ im sure they have what you are looking for....

You need to change the HTML code to do that. The pages can't communicate with each other so that the called page knows what the calling page was. At least, not using CSS...
