CSS style a:visited not being honored

Anyone know why my followed link color of grey is not being honored by Safari? Works on Chrome.

<style type="text/css">
a:link {
    color:#6495ED;
}
a:visited {
    color : grey; 
} 
a:active,
a:hover {
    color: white;
}

Just a callout, hex values offer MUCH more flexibility.

The code would be #808080 instead of grey (or as you've done, gray).

Play with Hex Values here:

Probably because it is gray in the HTML color names instead of grey

Grey is British English, but spelling in coding is always (as far as I've seen) American English.
