NetSurf has never supported link colours set as attributes in the BODY
tag. If you set them in the STYLE tag, they will work.
body { background-color:#00;
color: #ff; }
a:link{ color: #ccffcc; }
a:visited { color: #cc; }
a:active { color: #ff; }
That does in CSS what you currently do in the BODY tag.
Note also that NetSurf currently only supports link colours, not active
and visited link colours.
Best regards,
Michael

Thanks for that. I've been meaning to add that for ages. Now done. :-)

If we nag you for long enough will you put it in? We can alter our own
sites to work with our browsers but not all the others out there. Also
if you don't implement link colours then you shouldn't implement
background colours in the body tag, so that contrast can be preserved.

Rather than spending time nagging us, you could spend that time formulating a patch to make NetSurf do this and submit it to us. I, alas, have had no time for NetSurf for weeks, and am unlikely to until well into the new year: I suspect the other developers are suffering similar. B.

Presumably you would give a similar response if I said "Aah but it's all generic C, not ARM/RO in this case". So instead I shall urge you to file a bug on the bug tracker instead. Remember, most of the developers don't have time to read everything on this list, and indeed most of us forget anything not nicely filed in the tracker for us to think about. You might get a 'Closed: WontFix" but at least then it'll be recorded somewhere structured should another person come along complaining of the same thing.

If you're familiar with C in a UNIX context, there's bags of NetSurf you can get your teeth in to without ever touching anything RISC OS or ARM specific - NetSurf is essentially a UNIX application written in C. The RISC OS front end is neatly separated from everything else. Have a dig around and see what you can fiddle with, by all means. Contributions of any kind are always welcome. B.
