I’m currently working on an HTML project and encountering an issue with hyperlink styles. Despite defining styles for hover effects, they don’t seem to apply when hovering over the links. Here’s a simplified version of my code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Hyperlink Style Issue</title>
<style>
a {
color: blue;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover {
color: red;
text-decoration: underline;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p>Visit our <a href="https://example.com">website</a> for more information.</p>
</body>
</html>
Despite defining styles for the normal and hover states of the hyperlink, the hover effects don’t apply when hovering over the link. I’ve reviewed the styles, ensured proper syntax, but the issue persists.
Attempts and Expectations:
I’ve defined styles for both the normal and hover states of the hyperlink, expecting the hover effects to apply when hovering over the link. I’ve checked for typos and syntax errors, but the issue persists.

Code is fine try to change or update your browser.
The two reasons why the code might not work is that the code isn’t loaded in the browser (try ctrl-f5 to force reload in case you have something else cached in your browser, or even specifically delete the cache for the page and reload), or you’re on mobile — in which case it’s probably not supported.
