Hello everyone
I have upgraded to Flare v.5.0.1 this morning, straight from v4.2.
Everything seems to have gone ok EXCEPT that all my hyperlinks have been defaulted to the default underlined blue (and default underlined purple once visited). In my project, I have a stylesheet in which I have specified some different attributes for the <a> tag (different font-color and different text-decoration), which used to be taken into account in the previous Flare version. Weird thing is that the hyperlinks look correct when I preview a topic but all all back to default in the compiled CHM file (Everytime I do a build, I clean the output folder).
Any idea of what could be going on here? I checked the stylesshet, and also have checked that it was still assigned to the target. Has anyone else experienced this when upgrading?
Thanks.

yep - we had the same problem. We solved it by editing the stylesheet, but I cannot remember in what way - it was a lot of trial and error ... sorry for the bad news ...

It is very weird because I did not change the formatting of the hyperlinks. Also, I have noticed that the margins have disappeared on the topics. I have had a look at the stylesheet but it all seems ok in there. I am really puzzled by this one. Thanks for your input though.i-tietz wrote:yep - we had the same problem.

Quick update on this in case other people have a similar issue. I reverted to an old version of my stylesheet (we use source control) without any success so I had to edit the stylesheet manually (a.visited and a.link had disappeared and also I had to add some margin attributes as since we upgraded to Flare 5, the text suddenly started at 0,0, there was no default margin).
