Thanks for the fast response.

Just did a quick test:

1) Saved the page using my browser's "save as" feature.

2) Opened saved version in browser, confirmed that visited links still didn't manifest :hover styles.

3) Opened page in text editor, found stylesheet, moved a:hover below a:visited.

4) Reloaded browser.

5) Confirmed that visited links now manifest :hover styles.

I've read in various places that it's standard practice to put :hover styles after :link, :visited, and :active. Don't know if this is necessary because of imperfect CSS implementation in current browsers, but necessary nonetheless.
