Text link created in Content editor not showing...

Hi
A text link that I have created using the CMCMS Page Content Editor is not showing either in the content editor window nor in the website page.
The website page is here (the link is at the bottom of the page):
http://www.no27therapyroom.co.uk/contact

The link is 'active' in that the mouse changes when it is over where the link should be (to the right of 'Remedies online shop:') and links correctly when clicked. There is another (mailto) link above which displays correctly. All text uses the same CSS for styling.

The HTML (as copied from the page editor is here:
<h1>opening times</h1>
<p>By Appointment Only.<br /><br />Monday : Closed<br />Tuesday: 10am – 3pm<br />Wednesday: 10am – 3pm<br />Thursday: 10am – 3pm<br />Friday: 1pm – 7pm<br />Saturday: Closed<br />Sunday : Closed<br /><br />Unfortunately, due to the fact that I am a home based salon, I am unable to offer weekend treatments at present.</p>
<h1>contact</h1>
<p>No 27 Therapy Room<br />27 Fen Road, Milton<br />Cambridge CB24 6AD<br /><br />01223 501534</p>
<p><a href="mailto:email@no27therapyroom.co.uk?subject=No 27 Website Enquiry" target="_blank">email@no27therapyroom.co.uk</a><br /><br /></p>
<h1>neal's yard remedies</h1>
<p>You can purchase many aromatherapy and massage products from my Neal's Yard Remedies online shop: <a href="https://uk.nyrorganic.com/shop/TracyWesson/" target="_blank">CLICK HERE</a></p>

I checked and rechecked the CSS; it is here for reference:

a:link {
color:#c3826f;
text-decoration:none;
}
a:visited {
color:#767488;
text-decoration:none;
}
a:hover {
color:#767488;
text-decoration:none;
}
a:active {
color:#767488;
text-decoration:none;
}

I am a newcomer to both CMSMS and CSS so I may be being dumb but I cannot fathom why one link shows and the other doesn't.

Can anyone please enlighten me?

Regards

Paul

Use setting in your WYSIWYG editor "force black text on white background" or something...

Hi
Thanks for replying.
Yes: it's there when you first go to the page, but when you've clicked the link (which opens up the linked page in a new window) and go back, the linked text has 'disappeared'' to the state mentioned in my first post. It seems to be a 'visited link' issue, but I don't understand why it effects only this link and not the other.

I can't see that setting in the WYSIWYG editor.
The styling for the links comes from the CSS, which works as it should on the email link on the page just above this one. The problem only manifests when you have clicked the link and it becomes 'visited' but it only happens on this link and not the other one (both use the same CSS).
