help with link color in dreamweaver

Hello everyone. I'm building a site now with dreamweaver, and I added some email links, how can I change the color of those links. I'm using a template I bought from a template site and the css has the text color a blue grey and I want to change the link to white. It lets me change the color of the text but not the link. If I take the link out the text will be white but when I change it to a link it turns the blue grey again. Any input would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance-Rob

 

you could add a new style in your .css file such as

.link {
}

or you could just surround your link text with something like
<a href="link.html"><font color="#000000">link</font></a>

 

Or, so it validates Or, so it has a chance to validate xHTMl strict (though if its done in Dreamweaver I doubt it'll make much difference), something like this:

<a style="color:#FFF" href="link">this is a link<a/>

 

Thank you both. I will try that.

 

That worked. Thank you. It is wierd the way dreamweaver has issue's like that. I have come accross a few things I have had to edit in the code because they would not change in design mode. I guess it's a good thing though. I'm learning html. Thanks again.
