    I want the links within a DIV class to override the definitions for links on the remainder of the page (dark background issue).

    This doesn't work:

    .myclass { font-size:x-small; font-weight:bold; color:white}
a.myclass:link {color:white}
a.myclass:visited {color:white}
a.myclass:hover {color:red}
a.myclass:active {color:red}
    Code (markup):
    The font properties, including color, in the first line work fine but the link properties do not override those defined for the page.

    How can I do this?
