Summary: Colour links which have already been visited (history)
Product: WebKit
Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: Minor
Priority: P2
Component: WebKit Gtk
AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
ReportedBy: mason.larobina at gmail.com
This is an excerpt from a message sent to the webkit-gtk mailing list in June 2010 (as no bug was raised about it as far as I can tell):

> I am writing a little browser to browse local html files using webkit-gtk. When

I can confirm the same problem on Gentoo Linux & Archlinux using webkit-gtk versions 1.2.5 & 1.2.3.
