CSS Not Changing the link Underline Color

[theflyingminst]

Hi I am having a strange issue, when I set a a link to have a certain color, the text changes to the assigned color but the underline is given the tex/body attribute.

I'm losin' my darned mind here, does anybody have any idear what's goin on?

Thanks.

You are losing your underline for the link?
can you post your css

Hey Jeremu, what's up? No no, not losin' 'em, actually I removed them with text-decoration: none; for now because the different line color was driving me crazy.

Anyway here's the CSS, thanks!

<style>

body {background:#000000 url('') no-repeat; }

body, .text { color:#FFFFFF;}

a, a:link, a:visited {color:#D6D6D6;}

.header { color:#FA261B;}

.blinks { color:#FFFFFF;}

.vall { color:#E80000;}

IMG.th { width: 148px }


</style>

I don't see the underline changing.
do you have the HTML I could see.

Thanks, yeah but you've gotta run it in a browser to see what I'm talking about: <a target="_blank" href="about.asp">
<font face="Arial" style="font-size: 11pt" class="blinks">Artist Info</a></font>

I ran this in IE 6 & FireFox.
I have a couple of comments:
<a target="_blank" href="about.asp">
<font face="Arial" style="font-size: 11pt" class="blinks">Artist Info</a></font>

needs to be:
<font face="Arial" style="font-size: 11pt" class="blinks"><a target="_blank" href="about.asp">Artist Info</a></font>

and I would recommend removing the font tag all together:
<a target="_blank" href="about.asp" style="font-family:Arial; font-size: 11pt" class="blinks">Artist Info</a>

but even better:

<style>
...
body, .text { font-family:Arial; font-size: 11pt; color:#FFFFFF;}
...
</style>
...
<a href="about.asp" target="_blank" class="blinks">Artist Info</a>

Let me know if that works.

Hey Jeremu, the 3rd one worked like a charm, thanks so much!
