CSS Style

[leo9986754]

I'm creating a website using Dreamwaver 8 and all the colors of the links are done through styles.css. The default color is white (#FFFFFF), which is good because thats the color I want for my header and footer links. However when I begin creating my body text of the webpage, the links there are also white. Changing them to the red color (#820000) would result in changing all the links including the already satisfied header and footer links. I was wondering how to manipulate the styles.css sheet in a way that all the links in the header and footer are white (#FFFFFF) and all the links in the body text are red (#820000)?

you'll have to make a style just for the header and footer, and then make the general a:link etc. the red.

have like

.headfoot a:link, .headfoot a:visited {
color:#fff;
}

then wrap your header and footer text in these tags

<div class="headfoot">
your content
</div>

google 'css links' or look through w3 schools css tutorial. i find looking at the style sheets and layouts of well designed sites is a good place to learn things.
