Hover over Categories & Documents not working

[Donn]

I have the hovor color set and when I move across linkable text, the color changes.

BUT---not on the text in the categories or the documents boxes.

I would like these areas to respond in the same manner as the rest of the page.

The categories links are defined after the generic link/hover declarations and are more specific, so they would override that. Find the a.category-top {} declaration and add an a.category-top:hover {} with your desired behavior. Do the same for other category links as desired.

OK...I cahnged the colors. For some reason my cart doesnt keep track of lniks Ive been to. The cateogory links declaration changes only the

New Products ...
All Products ...

text at the bottom of the category box.

AND....

I can't seem to get the hover function to work.

I tried:

A.category-top, A.category-top:visited {
color: #2C3333;
text-decoration: none;
hover,
color: #0000CC;
}

as well as

A.category-top {
hover,
color: #003333;
}

What am I doing wrong??

You are doing the :hover wrong.
Also, to get different results for :link and :visited, you need to have them separate and give them different colors.

A.category-top {
    color: #2C3333;
    text-decoration: none;
    }

A.category-top:visited {
    color: #2C33ff;
    }

A.category-top:hover {
    color: #0000CC;
    }

A.category-top:hover {

    }

OK....got it....hover works....but visited links,categories,products still do not change, even after I seperated all of the declarations, visited being assigned a different color .

Are those ONLY going to light up if a user is logged in??

You need to make sure the :visited is declared after the :link; otherwise it will be overruled by the :link declaration. Could there be another a.category-top {} in the stylesheet after the one you edited?

Being logged in is not relevant to this.
