see that might be a problem is that some 'fresh' links are the same colour
as visited links. That could be my browser, but I'm pretty sure I've dumped
the cache since last time <grin!>, and there is a group of links at the
bottom of the sitemap page, under "... more" that I'm certain i had not
visited, but show up as visited. However, those might be in-page links that
I ignored in pages I did visit, so I'm not certain.
Good! Thanks.

This brings up an interesting (and confusing) point about CSS and hover.
In April and June there were several messages about this. A suggestion was
made to place "hover" in the third position (between visited and activated)
in the CSS style sheet. I had previously been placing it fourth (or last) so
started placing it third. After you wrote your comment above, I went back
into the remote.css file and switched the hover position back to last.
The correct display of colors should be link=blue; visited link=red,
activated link=black and hover=black (no underline).
Now, I.E. 5.x displays everything properly, NN4.x does too (of course,
without the hover showing), BUT Netscape 6.x no longer shows my visited link
color (red) <sigh>. I decided to leave it as it now is
Any thoughts?
