 | View Full Version : html question (href) rrsnider 01-01-2002, 03:26 PM Does anyone know how to control the color of hyper link text once it is clicked. I know how to use the color tag but once it is pressed it always goes purple. I assume this is the default, is there a way to change it ? Thanks. Matt Lightner 01-01-2002, 03:38 PM You can define that color in your page's body tag. Like so: <body vlink="#00FF00"> You can change that color to whatever you like. The example above will turn links green after they have been visited. Matt mlightner@site5.com bobcares 01-02-2002, 01:22 PM Hi! Using style sheets is a wonderful option in such cases.. Have a great day :) regards amar cactus 01-02-2002, 01:58 PM Yes, use CSS Put this code inside your HEAD TAG EXAMPLE: <HEAD> <STYLE TYPE="text/css"> <!-- A:link {color: #0000FF } A:visited {color:#0000FF } A:active {color:#00FF00 } A:hover {color: #FF0000 } --> </STYLE> </HEAD The above colors are: BLUE BLUE GREEN RED cactus 01-02-2002, 02:01 PM Yes, use CSS Put this code inside your HEAD TAG EXAMPLE: <HEAD> <STYLE TYPE="text/css"> <!-- A:link {color: #0000FF } A:visited {color:#0000FF } A:active {color:#00FF00 } A:hover {color: #FF0000 } --> </STYLE> </HEAD The above colors are: BLUE BLUE GREEN RED Change to any color to suit your "text" links by changing the color code ckpeter 01-02-2002, 02:54 PM If I am not mistaken, you can just use the common name of the color, ie., red, blue, etc. Peter 311 01-02-2002, 04:21 PM yes that would work also |
