change the color of active links category

[diamond1]

I wish the link of the category when clicked will change color, that include a: active. My templates is old comes from 12leaves put the link of the template where there is an online demo to not put your link on my site.
http://demo.zen-cart-themes.com/furniture/
I would be really grateful if someone helps me.

Unfortunately, most store-bought templates are nowhere near compatible with Zen Cart. So... they take to creating MANY stylesheets to try to cover up for their code changes. You will need to find out which of the stylesheets is controlling a particular "a" tag. Then, you can look at that stylesheet for an "a:active" call and try changing that.
If you use firefox and firebug, you can do this on the fly.

hello, using firebug but does not work a: active style sheet is this

I post this but it seems to work

#vert_nav-cat li a:active {
   color: #A52A2A;
}

have you noticed that the template seems to be for 1.3.9b? Have you checked with the creator to see if the template is really 1.5.4 compatible? I know they claim it works with 1.5.x but, there are some big differences in just the 1.5 series.
Also, they claim that any color you choose will cause "Necessary elements change color automatically".
You can always post something for us to look at by using the yoursiteDOTcom method. That hides the site from the SEs till you're ready for them to look.

It works well with 1:54, ok place link horibalandDOTcom

Been 41 years since I was first stationed at Aviano, Italy. Lovely place. On the bucket list for get back there.
How's about a specific page we can talk about? Or, are you talking about the categories in the left sidebox?

[diamond1]

We can talk you remember that I do not speak English and I translate everything with a translator must have a little patience when I read

Ciao! Proviamo questo . Il prolem è che non trovo il foglio di stile che lei ha citato in uso sul tuo sito. Mi può dare il nome del foglio di stile che hai postato sul forum ?
