Problem with link style

[jayaramgussy]

Hi,
I have created a HTML with stylesheet

<style>
#button {
width:50px;
}
.button
{
background-color :EC870E;
FONT-SIZE: 8pt;
color: #FFFFFF;
FONT-FAMILY: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;
font-weight: bold;
height : 16pt;
}
.contentBody
{
FONT-WEIGHT: normal;
FONT-SIZE: 10pt;
COLOR: #000000;
FONT-FAMILY: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif
}
.LegendText
{
FONT-WEIGHT: normal;
FONT-SIZE: 8pt;
COLOR: black;
FONT-FAMILY: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;
}
.FormMargin
{
margin-right: 10px;
margin-left: 10px;
}
</style>

and i am using class to call this styles. its working fine.
But My friend says to create same look & feel without style tags.
So, i have removed CSS codings. and alternatively i have used:

<table title="Related Links" width="185" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" Style="BORDER-RIGHT: #666666 1px solid; PADDING-RIGHT: 0.1em; BORDER-TOP: #666666 1px solid;
PADDING-LEFT: 0.1em; FONT-SIZE: 8pt; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0.1em; BORDER-LEFT: #666666 1px solid; COLOR: #000000; PADDING-TOP: 0.1em; BORDER-BOTTOM: #666666 1px solid; FONT-STYLE: normal; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #efefef;">


<font style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal; FONT-SIZE: 9pt; COLOR: #000000; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" >Welcome to my site</font>

These also working fine.

But how can use the following CSS codings and where can i use it?

A:link
{
COLOR: #006fa6;
TEXT-DECORATION: underline
}
A:visited
{
COLOR: #006fa6;
TEXT-DECORATION: underline
}
A:active
{
COLOR: #45adc6;
TEXT-DECORATION: underline
}
A:hover
{
COLOR: #45adc6;
TEXT-DECORATION: underline
}

Please give me your valuable solutions. Thanks

to use

Code: Select all

A:link
{
COLOR: #006fa6;
TEXT-DECORATION: underline
}
A:visited
{
COLOR: #006fa6;
TEXT-DECORATION: underline
}
A:active
{
COLOR: #45adc6;
TEXT-DECORATION: underline
}
A:hover
{
COLOR: #45adc6;
TEXT-DECORATION: underline
}

you could insert this in your body tag of your style sheet. So when you create a link, by default this is how the links will be styled, unless you specify otherwise.

hope that helps

One tip.
Don't get into a habbit of defining things in caps.
HTML is going to get a lot stricter in the future.
