Hi.
I want to use a different link color for different elements on my page. For example I have blue as the background color of my page's header,and I want to use white font color for the links in this area,and a different color for other areas.I'm trying to use classes but they don't work.There's my code from the css file:

.header {
background-image: url(images/tabstrip.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
text-indent: 5%;
}

A.header.:visited {
color: white
}

But I've had no success.If I remove the ".header" part from the above statement it works,but then the color is the same throughout the page.Oh and here's the html code:

<div class="header">
<a href="index.php">Test link</a>
</div>

That's all of the code i've written so far.I'll move on to designing the other elements after I've designed the header..on which I'm stuck right now ..Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.
