The Link Pseudo-class applies to hyperlinks (in HTML, <A HREF> elements)
that have not yet been visited by the user. The other Pseudo-class state
for hyperlink visitation is :Visited, which denotes a hyperlink that has
already been visited. A hyperlink can only be in one of these two states; after
a specific amount of time a visited hyperlink may be returned to the unvisited
state by the browser or user.
Example
Ext/Doc: a:link
{ font-size: 14pt;
text-decoration: underline;
color: blue }
In-Line: NA

4.0x:
- 'a:link' and 'a:visited' Pseudo-classes do not over-ride 'a'
selectors as they should.
