I was trying to avoid CSS and use html only. I made the page for a local student association and they will have different folks maintaining the page since their officers change on a regular basis. If I stick with html only, then the chances are better that everyone will be able to handle keeping the site updated. I hand coded the links individually since I could not find any other option. Dreamweaver has the option to change each one individually, but I was using a template that was over riding the Dreamweaver option apparently, as it would not let me change the link color individually, and I could find no reason in the coding for it to not let me. Dreamweaver has wonderful tutorials, but I could not find this problem in their lesson base. If anyone comes up with a solution for future references, I would be tickled to hear about them. Thanks!

Then I give another row (or table, or cell, or column) a class of "white" and I can have a white background with black text and blue links. If the cells are scattered, you'd still have to set each one with a class. > > The one thing to remember in all this is what it's going to do to someone who wants to print that page. If they print the background, they waste a lot of ink but if they don't, they don't get the links. Maybe pink and baby blue cells?

Hey Elaine Do you have the page on the internet yet? If so give us a link and I'll look at it and see if there's a solution for the future! jimmy Elaine Martin wrote: > <snip> > > Dreamweaver has wonderful tutorials, but I could not find this problem > in their lesson base.
