Force link to look not visited using CSS

Question

Is there a way to use CSS to make a given link appear as it is not visited, even if it has already been visited?

I know you can do this by explicitly setting the same color for the visited and non-visited links. But is it possible to do this without hardcoding the color of the visited links? Just telling the CSS to color them using the same color as the non-visited links, whatever that may be.

The reason for this is that I want to Rickroll a friend.

Answer 1

You can leverage the inherit property:

a:visited {
  color: inherit;
}

Another option is to use !important:

a {
  color: red !important;  
}
