    Default Breadcrumb 'visited' color misery

    I want to change the 'a:visited' color just on the breadcrumb line.

    It seems to be tied to the rest of the 'visited' colours, giving a black color on dark background, which is virtually unreadable.
    ive spent a few hours altering the css to isolate this element, to no avail.

    Do I need to add a line to the css or something.

    thanks

    No problem. You do have to change it in the stylesheet. Leave your current a:hover setting in place and add the following (change the color/text decoration to whatever fits your site.

    Code:
    #navBreadCrumb a:link {
    	color: #FF0000;
    	text-decoration: none;
    	}
    
    
    #navBreadCrumb a:visited {
    	color: #0000FF;
    	text-decoration: none;
    	}
    
    #navBreadCrumb a:hover {
    	color: #FF0000;
    	text-decoration: none;
    	}
    I put it in my stylesheet after the #navBreadCrumb declaration, but it can go anywhere.

    The breadcrumb issue was one of simply figuring what to separate out from where. I did it for a prototype, so I knew what you were trying to do.

    I see Merlin answered your "white space" post. He's prettu reliable aout such issues.
