For anchors, CSS offers the pseudo-classes :hover, :visited, and :link. These classes let you style the three stages of a link. In this course we use :link to style the link before the user activates it. Use :hover to style the link when the cursor hovers over it, and use :visited to style the link after the user visits it.
Typically, you'll use all three classes in tandem, like so:
a{border:solid}
a:visited {border-color:blue;}
a:link {border-color:blue;}
a:hover {border-color:red;}
In IE browsers, though, the :hover pseudo-class won't work unless it follows the :visited class. For maximum browser compatibility, it's smart to place :hover at the end.
