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 Document color attributes are superseded by CSS.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().

The Document.vlinkColor property gets/sets the color of links that the user has visited in the document.

In this article

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 (#551a8b in hexadecimal).
  • Document.vlinkColor is deprecated in the HTML specification.
  • The recommended alternative is to get/set the color of the CSS :visited pseudo-class on HTML <a> elements (e.g., a:visited {color:red;}).
