IE6 CSS question on the link

From my investigation, it seems that IE6 considers the following links to be the same:

link1: http://www.google.com#/ test=1
link2: http://www.google.com#/test=2

The reason is that I assigned different colors between a:visited and a:link.

p>

After clicking link1 or link2 for the first time, both links are rendered as: visited color.

But it will not happen on IE7.

You guys before Have you encountered this problem? If so, can someone tell me the best way to solve this problem?

Thank you.

Since you said you can’t avoid IE 6 (sigh) , My answer is to completely avoid the problem by implementing a more modern design without highlighting access links… Unvisited links always look the same as access links.

In the past ten years , Are there any large, popular or professional websites that distinguish “visited” links? Answer: Do I remember.

Why?

>People are treated smarter. They already know that they visited a link and don’t need the site to tell them.
>The site is better organized. A site with a clear layout is less confusing , People don’t need to visually indicate what they’ve clicked on.
>Graphics and visual cues. Websites used to be mostly plain text, and there may be photos. You need a visual indicator to help track where your reading is interrupted. Especially because most links take you to a brand new page or website. Nowadays, the content is very rich visually, including graphic layout, icons, text, animation, multimedia, etc… You no longer need to rely on the “visit” indicator Colored text to help you track the location of the interruption.
>Complexity and Ajax. Now, with a rich interactive page, updating content does not require a page refresh. However, when you do need to refresh the page, people want the page to return To its initial “unvisited” state. Using the “visited” link, you cannot simply refresh the “reset” page, which will cause confusion; especially because modern visitors don’t want to see the link change to a different color. br>>Confusing and inconsistent experience. Anyone who has started using the Internet in the past 5 to 10 years may not easily understand why some links suddenly appear in different colors on your website and no one else’s.< br>>Not all links are pages or websites. Some links trigger modals. Some cause divs to open or slide. Some control slides or other interactive objects. Links can trigger any ajax function you can think of. After clicking, these Is the link also considered “visited”? Of course not. To reduce confusion, the concept of “visit” links has become obsolete.
>Redundant. Nowadays, most people use the same website on different computers, handheld devices, etc. Therefore, “visit links” do not matter Anything becomes useless. Not to mention that people tend to delete their cache and use multiple browsers on the same machine, again making the highlight color of the “visit link” meaningless.






Link1; Link2;

Edit: The suggestions I made in the answer above are mainly for website navigation , Menu, footer and other links. The valid exception is the links that make up the search result list.

Since you said you can’t avoid IE 6 (sigh), my answer is to achieve a more modern design. Don’t highlight visit links to avoid the problem altogether… Unvisited links always look the same as visit links.
