I cannot change the color of my link for my life! The link is the same color as my background so no one can see it! please help. This is what I'm typing in.

In the HEAD section of your document, add a style section:

<style type="text/css">
a:link { color: #0000FF; }
a:visited { color: #990099; }
a:active { color: #FF0000; }
a:hover { color: #FF0000; }
</style>

Change the #xxxxxx color values to those you want for the various link state colors.

I think you're correct -- I almost always set them to the same color (using a selector of "a:hover, a:active") so never really worried about it.
