Hi I'm working on this site (http://www.lawmatters.ca/links.htm) and for some reason when I create a hyperlink the text shrinks in size.

I can't make it bigger.

Also, the links are behaving weird. When mousing over them, they shake rattle and roll.

I'm sure it's something I've done. Thx for any ideas.

A {color:#000000; font-family: Helvetica, Arial; font-size: 10px; text-decoration: none;}
A:hover {color:#990000; font-family: Helvetica, Arial; font-size: 12px; text-decoration: none;}

Fix that, and you will be set.

Thanks fyrestrtr. The problem is fixed. Not sure what actually happened. I deleted some of the code you quoted, made some changes, then re-added it and everything was fine.

The A means regular link style on the page..

the a:hover is the links when moused over..

so css code like:

a { color:blue;text-decoration:none;}
a:hover {color:blue;text-decoration:underlined;}

will make the links blue without lines, and when the mouse is moved over it it becomes blue underlined.

Look up more info on CSS style sheets...

peace,
