23149 - {css1} a:visited doesn't work

Status: CLOSED INVALID

(Core :: CSS Parsing and Computation, defect, P3)

Description

[Christine Hoffman]

Using 1/5 build on Windows, Mac and Linux.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open attached file.
2. Click on link (will take you to Netscape's home page).
3. Click on the back button.

Expected result: Visited link should have red text and a lime
background
Actual result: Colors still reflect the a:link properties (cross platform)

The visited link worked with 1/3 build.

Attaching another text case. There are three links. They go to:
1) Netscape's home page
2) It's own document
3) A bogus document

Results:
1) :visited link colors do not display
2) Upon opening document, :visited link colors are displayed instead of :link
colors
3) This example works correctly - Document comes up with :link colors and after
clicking on link and coming back to document, :visited colors display

Comment 4

[Christine Hoffman]

In the attachment above, some behavior is not cross platform. Here are the
results:

Example #1: Behavior is across platform - :visited color values do not work.
Example #2: Mac and Linux work correctly. On Windows, however, the :visited
color values cache so if the document is reopened, the :visited color values are
not displayed instead of the :link color values.
Example #3: Windows, Mac and Linux behavior are all correct (example used for
comparison)

[Hixie (not reading bugmail)]

Migrating from {css1} to css1 keyword. The {css1}, {css2}, {css3} and {css-moz}
radars should now be considered deprecated in favour of keywords.
I am *really* sorry about the spam...
