Document: vlinkColor property
Deprecated
Avoid using this feature in new projects. Document color attributes are superseded by CSS. This feature may be a candidate for removal from web standards or browsers.
Consider using the following features instead: background-color, Color, CSS object model, or getComputedStyle().
Deprecated: This feature is no longer recommended. Though some browsers might still support it, it may have already been removed from the relevant web standards, may be in the process of being dropped, or may only be kept for compatibility purposes. Avoid using it, and update existing code if possible; see the compatibility table at the bottom of this page to guide your decision. Be aware that this feature may cease to work at any time.
The Document.vlinkColor property gets/sets the color of
links that the user has visited in the document.
Value
A string representing the color as a word (e.g., "red") or hexadecimal value (e.g., "#ff0000").
When set to the null value, that null value is converted to the empty string (""), so document.vlinkColor = null is equivalent to document.vlinkColor = "".
Notes
- The default value for this property in Mozilla Firefox is purple
(
#551a8bin hexadecimal). Document.vlinkColoris deprecated in the HTML specification.- The recommended alternative is to get/set the color of the CSS
:visitedpseudo-class on HTML<a>elements (e.g.,a:visited {color:red;}).
