Sam, I know you've fixed the issue with Hyperlinks so by default they are now Blue/underlined, but once they've been visited they change back to Black, regular text (thus are indistinguishable from the body text).

Any chance this can be modified?

err ... not here, they don't.

What versions of browser/OS are you using?

Sam.

I've tested this on IE 7 / Windows XP and Firefox (Windows and Linux) and can't reproduce this.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

Sam.

I'm guessing we're talking links in the forum posts ?

If so they appear blue for me and remain blue after clicking.

Using I.E. 7 on XP pro.

Aha.... Got it.

Dave the other day you had problems with a Wiki page and mentioned you were using I.E. 6.

Well, I've just tested this in my virtual XP machine set to use I.E.6 and the problem your having occurs.

So it's a I.E. 6 thing, probably bad style sheet implementation or something in I.E. 6 ?

As I mentioned to Dave M. other day we had a problem at work with one of our projects when we migrated to I.E. 7. It's annoying !

If it's not even supported by Microsoft anymore, there's no way I'm supporting IE 6 - you complained the other day about my other site. It looks as bad as it does because I made it IE 6 compliant. ;) Hack-a-rama!

Really wish I hadn't bothered in hindsight ... bleugh!

Sam.

I'd support "no support for i.e.6", it's hard enough getting it to work on I.E.7 and Firefox without having to test and make work with i.e.6 as well.

Yep, I was browsing at work, where IE6 is forced upon us. :(

Tried again at home (with Firefox and IE7) and no such issues.

Agree that there's no point wasting any more time on this ...
