So I'ma coding the new Blonde Foundation, and apparently, it decides not to recognise the first pseudo-class under a > selector...
That is,
div#subnav > a:first-child:link, a:first-child:visited
{
color: #d08257;
text-decoration: none;
}
Doesn't apply the style to
a:first-child:link. If I write it twice, it does, to the second one. Like so.
div#subnav > a:first-child:link, a:first-child:link, a:first-child:visited
{
color: #d08257;
text-decoration: none;
}
Any pseudo classes I put under it do this, I haven't tried normal classes. Does anyone know why? Is it a Mozilla bug? A CSS bug?
EDIT- Tested in IE. Looks like a CSS bug?
None.

CSS is Standardized.. IE is not..
Its not the CSS cause its been standardized by the W3C so I am blaming IE on this one cause they're not standardized.
None.
I don't see anything wrong.

I believe you are making a syntax error for you to think it's a bug, as you are writing two very different declarations. You probably want this:
div#subnav > a:first-child:link, div#subnav > a:first-child:visited { }
in which case, you will either get your colors or you won't, depending on if your <a> element is truly the first element under the subnav div.
It's probably not though, because your other declarations are working which are an <a> element being the first element of any element.
HTML example?
Oh, and it won't work in IE, at least up until IE 7. I tried getting away using various css2 stuffs on sen before I finally gave up on IE complaints.
Edit: And as far as possible solutions:
If your <a> is is a consistent dom, just transverse it as needed. As if there was a <br /> between the subnav and <a>: div#subnav > br:first-child + a:link or if a is inside another element, div#subnav > *:first-child: > a:first-child:link.
Or if possible, make the link in an empty span/div with it's own name and start from there. <div subnav>blah blah blah <div links><a><a><a></div></div> and switch your subnav css to the new links class.
Also, I hope you realize there will only be one <a> element that would apply to the class you wrote, ever.

Lol, the anchor tag just has different parameters (or do they call them attributes in HTML?) to it, lol.

Kellimus, if you'd bothered to read, you'd see I'd tested it in Firefox before IE. Also, the w3 CSS validator passes it.
IP, what you typed works exactly the same as the syntax I had... Although I cut it down, because I didn't really need the first-child pseudo. (Mainly, it's not a first-child any more.) now it's
#subnav > a:link, a:link, a:visited
{
color: #a37347;
text-decoration: none;
}
#subnav > a:hover, a:hover, a:active
{
color: #d08257;
text-decoration: underline;
}
And this works perfectly, but the a:hover and a:link stop getting styled unless I have something before them. This is what is confusing me. It doesn't need to be repeated, it just needs any class before it. p, make it work, for example.
EDIT - For the record
#subnav > a:link, #subnav > a:visited
{
color: #a37347;
text-decoration: none;
}
#subnav > a:hover, #subnav > a:active
{
color: #d08257;
text-decoration: underline;
}
doesn't work.

I'm retarded.
#subnav a:link, #subnav a:visited
{
color: #a37347;
text-decoration: none;
}
#subnav a:hover, #subnav a:active
{
color: #d08257;
text-decoration: underline;
}
Done.
None.
I think you want:
#subnav a:link, #subnav a:visited { colors; }
None.
Fuck you beat me to it while I was testing it to make sure ;o
None.
Fuck you beat me to the ninja'd gloating!
So the moral of the story is, it was disregarding the first part, because it didn't mean anything, and I am horrible at CSS syntax
None.
