You need to set your java script up propperly.

In the code, where it says -

a:hover{color:red}

Add this underneath -

a:link{color:red}

Btw, you should really be using css for this. It would make things a lot easier ;)

Im going to look now thanks

I gave that a shot, have used a css file and linked all the pages to it

Been cleaning up the code buts still ****ed up

Still having the same problems, now its blue instead of black :lol:

use this as a stylesheet



a {color: #CC3300};


if that doesn't work, try this:



a:link,a:visited,a:hover,a:activ {color: #CC3300};

[schlongfingers]

that bottom one should be (****in edit button!!!):



a:link,a:visited,a:hover,a:active {color: #CC3300};

Not to mention should you ever want to change the styling of an entire site, you only have to do it in one place.

This is why XML / XSLT is the future.

to be honnest i cant be bothered to learn XML. i can do everything i could possibly need with a combination of server side scripting, DHTML and CSS.

Thats not to say that XML doesnt have its places, just that i havent had the time or patience to learn it yet.

BTW, what ever happened to VRML? I was starting to get the hang of it by version 2 but then it just dissapeard. Was pretty cool stuff too

XML is so ****ing easy, an 8 year old could learn it.

XSL is more complicated, but entirely logical.

Well worth adding these to your skillset imho.

Still around... just no-one ever really did anything useful with it.

AJAX is the future.

Application Servers, interacting asynchronously with dyanmically generated web pages (XML/XSLT) using XML as a transport, and JavaScript to tie it all together.
