In Mozilla and Firebird, the headings for news items become underlined and change colour to red when the mouse is moved over them.

This seems a little bizarre, and has been bugging me for some time.

Opera too.

Either the <a name>s should be empty, not surrounding the heading, or some a:link:hover / a[name]:hover changes need to be made to the stylesheet.

Yeah, I did point out ages ago that the hover colour was set to red, and I think Tim left it in to be bug me :)

You can use a:link { .. } instead of just a { .. } in the CSS to stop this, btw.

Hmm, either IE's playing up or the visited links have just all become underlined...

[edit]

Fixed now :)

Thanks for the tip but this doesn't seem to be working. We now have:


a:link {
text-decoration: none;
color: #0000FF;
}

a:visited {
color: #0000BB;
text-decoration: none;
}

a:hover {
color: red;
text-decoration: underline;
}


but still a red hover on the headlines.

Yes, because the a:hover is still present; changing a to a:link simply means the "a" section is only applied to proper links not named links, it doesn't change the hover behaviour at all. This is for if you're getting named links looking like real links - which doesn't happen here because of the font tags. The correct solution is as I stated it previously in this thread:

Either the <a name>s should be empty, not surrounding the heading, or some a:link:hover / a[name]:hover changes need to be made to the stylesheet.
