The :active state is not shown when doing mousdown on an anchor which contains a child inline element (instead of a simple text node). 2001082308 win2k <html> <body> <p> In the anchor links below, if an &lt;a>&lt;/a> contains an inline element, then the CSS :active link coloring is not shown on mousedown. </p> <p> Mousedown on each of the links below. The color should turn to red, but only the third example, with a simple text node contained in the anchor element will do so. </p> <a href="link-one"><b>Some Link</b></a> <br><br> <a href="link-two"><span>Some Link</span></a> <br><br> <a href="link-tri">Some Link</a> </body> </html>
Funny I should notice this now. This has been this way for quite some time. In fact, I'm wondering if I've dredged up a long-standing bug (or if this is invalid for some reason [i.e., :active doesn't apply to descendants]). Ian?
