Object: Letting visitors know they've visited a page already
Hi everyone, I've made a website that's designed to present my portfolio.
It has a number bar made up of one graphic that has the numbers 1 through 10
listed. When someone is viewing the site they simply click on one of those
numbers and the correlating page appears. I've done this with hot spots.
Problem is I'd like to be able to let my visitors know which images they've
already viewed. On other websites that I've visited I see that the font either
changes color or gets bolder after it's been clicked once. Any suggeestions?
Thank you.
JJ

Use text instead of an image with hotspots. Then use CSS to give the
visited links a different color.

Thank you Alec. Yes, I figured that might be the answer, but how does one go about doing that in CSS? What key words am I looking for? Thank you.

Place all your text links inside a DIV with an ID like id="topnav".
Create rules for the links inside the topnav by using pseudoclasses:
#topnav a {
color:red;
background:yellow;
}
#topnav a:visited {
color:black;
background:yellow;
}
You would do well to take the time to go through a few tutorials:
