Yes i have logged many hours building GUI's... and from the comments
you've made so far... obviously more that you have! But your defiance
intrigues me. You still argue in the face of undeniable fact.

Ok, i will lower the bar a bit this time. They (the buttons) are
exactly the same thing except for a few superficial differences. Both
"buttons" wait for activity (either by pointer, or touch) and then
execute a linked block of code. The fact that hyper-link displays a
visual clue that it has been "activated" before is just superficial.
Heck a "button" displays a visual clue that it is a button and you are
not arguing that point?  And this moronic argument of ":onhover"
":visited", and ":active" is completely unfounded as buttons have
mouse events such as "Enter" and "Leave", just to name a few.

Adam, it is now evident that your view of the world is, at best, a
superficial one. You are shallow and incapable of any coherent
abstract reasoning abilities. I genuinely hope this is due to some
emotional distress you are suffering and not a chronic condition,
because if not, you need to give some deep mediative thoughts to how
you are perceiving the world around you to heal your mind of this
improper processing. Being argumentative just for the sake of being
argumentative is a never ending cycle of foolishness. Now, at some
point earlier you had begin to display some coherency and insights. I
sure hope that behavior will return soon..?
