Hadi Khan Hi, but this is not the place to say hi/hello, it is considered spamming, if anyone reports you, than you may be deactivated.. so better delete your answer. You can DM, or Make a post to say your greetings or informal work.

Don't use the selector a, use the selector a:any-link. Your problem is with a:active is the selector which allows you to style the link during the time it is active(after a click on it) so you could use the selector to fix your problem, too. I would recommend to take a look at pseudo selectors, they are really useful and very powerful
