Question about CSS Links 1

[mikeburgett]

I am designing a web for our work (for the first time) and have run into trouble using CSS with links. When I first created the website, I decided to make all links yellow. I was successful at doing this, but now can not get rid of this. In spite of removing external CSS links, all of my pages continue to make all links appear yellow. Not only that, but when I open up other websites with GoLive, there links appear yellow as well.

Have you ever run into this kind of problem. Where is the external CSS causing this (application wide) hiding?

Any ideas would be a help.

Hmmm.... hard to find a problem is i can't look at it. Please post the sites url.

Do they only appear yellow in GoLive or in your browser too?

Do you want all links a different colour or some one colour and other another colour?

CSS link styles must be defined in this order to ensure they work properly:
a:link
a:visited
a:hover
a:active

Thanks for the email. The site I mentioned is:

http://www.joetsubbc.org,

but it is a Japanese website, so it may be difficult to tell what is going on. Of course, the problem (links being in yellow) occurs not only in my own website, but in others that I download and look at using GoLive. That is in spite of the fact that those websites don't do that when viewed in my browser. This makes me think that it is an application wide setting (preference?) as opposed to a site wide setting. I do have the CSS link styles in the order you mentioned, but since I am new at all of this I may have some other problem that I am not aware of. Again thanks for the email and for trying to help. If you have any advice, I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

I don't know of any global setting in GoLive that would do that.

Maybe you could try posting your question in the GoLive forum located here:

There are more people there and perhaps one of them can be of some help.

Thank you so much for all your input on my problem with CSS in GoLive. To be honest, I am not sure what I did to correct the problem, but it does seem to be corrected. I do appreciate your help.
