link colors

[Vic_the_elder]

I have a page I'm adding links to. I have the colors set up for link, vlink, and alink.
When I click a link, the color changes to the alink color until the next page loads. When I navigate back to my original page however, the link still has the alink color rather than the vlink color. I have to click anywhere on the page to get the the colors to switch.
I thought when I navigated back to the original page, the link color should already be the vlink color.
I hope this makes sense, and thanks for any help,
V

If "navigated back" means using your browser's "BACK" button.... it won't change because you are usually seeing a cached page (as it was when you left it... in the a:active state). If you are using a link to access the page that's a different story.

So simple that if it had teeth I'd have been severely bitten.
Thank you for pointing out what should have been a logical thought path for me.
DUH!
