Ok, so Ive made a very simple CSS for my website to do simple text rollovers on the links. Basically just the 3 simple lines for link, hover, visted. Now the rollovers work just fine if they havent been visited, but once they are the hover property no longer takes effect. For instance, if I have link and visited set to blue text and hover is set to red, it will turn red when I hover the link, but if I click it and go back, it will be stuck in the visited state and hovering does nothing.
Ive never had this problem before and I have no idea whats going on. The link should change color on hover regardless of weather or not it was visited correct? Nothing I can think of will fix it.

Let's turn those old bridges we crossed into ashes.
We'll blaze a new trail,
and torch the rough patches.

I got it working finally. All I had wrong was the order... I had link, hover, visited and it needed to be link, visited, hover. Though, I never had this problem before and I coulda sworn Ive done it the former way before.
