[Cosmo-dev] Re: [commits-cosmo] (br) [5072] added mimi's css change per bug 9885

[Matthew Eernisse]

Mimi,

Could we possibly do away with the changed color for visited links?

Doesn't seem like it's really like navigation links on a Web site or a 
wiki where it's useful to keep track of where you've clicked, and where 
you haven't. For example, is it really relevant in the context of an app 
that the user has previously clicked "Log Out" before?

To pile on, note that links that invoke JavaScript (e.g. Settings, 
show/hide) will never go purple, so there will be seemingly no rhyme or 
reason why some links in the app are purple, and some are blue.

I'd like to advocate strongly that we go back to using the same color 
for visited/unvisted links in the PIM UI.

Thanks.


Matthew
