Hi,
Hope someone can help me solve this!

My links are supposed to appear as buttons but when the page first loads, it just a normal text link.
only after you've clicked on the link, the next time it'll show up as a button.
How do i fix this? I want the links to appear as buttons right away when the page loads.

webpage: http://guu.bravehost.com/testsheep.html

(i don't know html/css... the code was adapted, so i really don't understand it unsure.gif )

thanks!

Can't see any buttons whatever I do on that page. Did you mean http://guu.bravehost.com/ ?

I recommend that you start by fixing the markup errors reported by our online validator.

It looks like you've got a typo in your style sheet.
CODE
menu a:link, #menu a:visited {...}
selects unvisited links inside menu elements (which don't exist), and visited links inside elements with id="menu" attributes (which do exist).
