Problem Getting Link Colors to Work Correctly

[wolfpup187]

I am working on a responsive website and having issues with my links. I have set the link colors in Utilities
However, some of the links do not show the colors set up. When I rollover the links they do not change colors. The links themselves work, just the colors won't change to the color they are supposed to be. This is happening on the library page: http://www.thesiteseeker.com/gfc/library.htm and the Community Resources page: http://www.thesiteseeker.com/gfc/database.htm

I am hoping someone can help me with this. The other links in the site are working fine. Any clues?
Thank you.

Of course, when I finally get frustrated enough to post here, I happen upon the solution! I did not have the box in the Link Properties dialog checked that says, "Use Common Website Link Colors".

So here is the resolution in case anyone else needs it.

Does this now work with all the links on your site?

When I checked out your file some of the links previewed fine in mouse over state and other did not.

Yes, a lot of them need to be reasigned. Possibly an issue with not having "Use Common Website Link Colors" checked earlier.

Just checked a few of the links in the green rectangle and you're right Egg. I changed the URL for the first link in the green box to the none then back to the original link and then it worked with the same colors as the other links. Odd that!

I have been having a similar problem with my web site over the last year. I first noticed it under designer X11 and I am still getting it under X12. What I have found is that if you reload the site it will sometimes correct the color problems.

I just added a couple of new pages to my site and I am having all kinds of trouble with the link colors. One of the things I noticed is that in Explorer it will show more of the links with the link colors but when in FireFox will not show as many of the links with the link colors. Another thing is I have links to view PDF files and a lot of them are not working in FireFox but in Explore they are.

If I find out anything I will post.

Update-

What I have found is that the links that I am looking at on the site is turning dark because I have already visited that link previously. so I am not seeing the new link colors. That is why Explorer was working better than Firfox, because I use Firefox as my default.

Now if I can just get the PDF links to work right.
