Html code help :S by John Anderton on 04-26-2005 at 09:36 AM

Whats the html code for defining the colour for a hyperlink

  1. Before clicking
  2. After clicking it
  3. and when the mouse is hovering on it
    [/list]

    I am making a site by using notepad and the site uses php scripts and css. :)
    If all goes well it should be done in a few hours :) But i get stuck on such small points and its irritating cause i cant go forward :P

code:
body a:link{
color: black;
}
body a:visited{
color: black;
}
body a:active {
    color: black;
}

add that to your css :P


edit:
dont use the html way add a class if you need to single out links like

code:
class a:link{
color:blue;
}

yeh thats right

the first way is like if you need a link inside a table or something

e.g table a:link makes all links inside tables the specified color

You should not use classes if that's not needed. Use a paragraph instead, like this

<p id="localhost">Hi i'm <a href="localhost">localhost</a></p>

Now your css would be like

p#localhost a:link, p#localhost a:visited
{
  text-decoration: none;
  color: #000;
}
p#localhost a:hover
{
  text-decoration: underline;
}
