From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.1 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/0 BuildID: 1.0-rc1 The a:hover CSS style does not affect links placed inside <h2> .. </h2> tags. In my example, the "Autoconf Macro Archive" link should have been displayed with a yellow background when the cursor was placed on it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Access the URL. 2. Put the cursor above the "Autconf Macro Archive" link Actual Results: The link was not highlighted Expected Results: It should have been highlighted

a is an inline element, so it cannot contain h2, which is a block-level element. Try <h2><a></a></h2>, then run your page through validator.w3.org.

That's all true, but this is actually our bug, since our parser _does_ allow that construct and nothing in CSS forbids it. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 146409 ***
