Link Colours 1

thatrenowned · Nov 28, 2005

Probably a simple solution but websites / HTML aren't really my forte!

Using Dreamweaver I've set the colour for my links in the page properties, but theres one link I would like to be a different colour. I've tried highlighting it and changing it to the colour I want but it doesn't change. Thing is I'm sure this worked before...

How do you set links to be a different colour to that which you set in the page properties?

thanks

Nah its just for this one page - its just a normal text link which I would like to be a different colour because of the background its on.

BTW, if you were implying that I should use CSS, I haven't done it for ages and even then it was in Notepad so I can't remember how to do it!

Style classes

Code:

<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
a.link1 {
	font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	font-size: 12px;
	color: #FF0000;
	text-decoration: underline;
}
a.link2 {
	font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	font-size: 12px;
	color: #00FF00;
	text-decoration: underline;
}
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p><a href="Page1.htm" class="link1">Link 1</a></p>
<p><a href="Page2.htm" class="link2">Link 2</a></p>
</body>
</html>
