CSS problems
Hi, I'm having this problem with this external CSS I made for my site, since I'm pretty new to this whole HTML thing, I read up on it as much as I could, but this problem I can't seem to find a solution for
My site is at http://strife.100megsfree3.com/
and the text file for my stylesheet is at http://strife.100megsfree3.com/stylesheet.txt (my page uses the .css version)
Now, the thing is, I think I have declared the anchor tags in the stylesheet correctly, and in correct order, but the problem is that the A:link declaration seems rather unaffected by the style sheet, I have used IE 5.5 and Netscape 6.0 to see the site, and they both display the same result, the underlined ugly blue link
Also, how could I implement other link declaration that I don't want to move like the ones on the menu, I have read a bunch of CSS tips and pages but they don't seem to cover links and CSS much
Thank you for any help

use classes to get different effects for different links...
<style>a { color: ff0000; }
a.blah { color: 0000ff; }
</style>
(........)
<a href="blah.htm" class=blah>blah</a>
<a href="sumthin.htm">everything else</a>
the link "blah" will be blue, 'everything else' will be red. and you can add link,active,visited, and hover after the a.class_name (a.blah:hover)
was that the question?

If there is no answer on Google, then there is no question.

that answered the second part, but do you know what i can change in the style sheet to make the a:link behave the way i want it to? (ie be a white color and arial font instead of the blue underline link it is now) I'm not sure what the problem is, I think the css is correct and in all theory it should work but somehow it doesn't

oh I got it to work, it seems the css was very picky about the order of the declarations, again, thank you for your help
