visited link state

I'm having an issue when I try to set the visited state, it does not seem to work. Not sure why this is happening as the hover works but the visited does not. Any ideas why not? 

 #nav li:visited a{ 
        background:#6b0c36;
    }

    #nav li:hover a{ 
        background:#6b0c36;

    }

li elements cannot match the :visited pseudo-selector (think about what that would even mean). Anchors have locations that can have been visited, so if you need to change the style on a visited anchor, use:

#nav li a:visited
{
  background: #6B0C36;
}

what about this:

#nav li a:visited{ 
    background:#6b0c36;
}

#nav li a:hover{ 
    background:#6b0c36;

}
