CSS & Hyperlinks

I need to create a web page that displays two different styles of hyperlinks. I'd imagine one would use CSS to do this. I can create one style of a hyperlink by doing the following:

a { text-decoration: none; color="#000000" }
a.l { color: #000000; text-decoration: none }
a.l2 { color: #000000; text-decoration: none }
a.m { color: #000000; text-decoration: none }
a:hover { color: #000000 }

but this lets me use one style for the whole page. How could I create a class that allows me to use two(or more) different styles?

You have to actually name the class for each <a href> tag to make it work, like so:

Say you have two sets of links attributes:
a {text-decoration:underline;}
a.two {text-decortation :overline;}

All links will be underlined now.If you want the links to have overline you have to do it like this:

<a class=two href=http://bla.bla.bla>blabla</a>

Hope this helps.

Hey, thanks! I've been trying all kinds of things to get that functionality to work. I was actually interested in the hover attribute which was

a:hover.two { color: #FFFFFF }

and it worked.

Yeah I forgot to mention that, but it's the exact same thing (as you found out) https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif

Its a nice feature. Lets you create a seperate file and import it into each web page that you have. That way all of your fonts are the same.

You mean

<link rel=stylesheet href=../styles.css type=text/css>

?? - That's a really good feature. I started making separate style sheets for each page, but that's just a complete waste of time. Using the above method it great for getting the same styles on all pages. https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/6.gif

Thats the guy I was talking about. He's a life saver. Well, maybe not a life saver, but darn close to it.

I'm a little bit lazy... I just call all my pages .asp even style.asp then I just do a <!--#include ...-> at the top of all the pages that need to use style.asp. Even then you could name it .css, but whats the point?! https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif

It may not be a big deal, but the difference is in the output. In your #include statement, the actual source is put into the "View Source" output. When you use the method described in the previous posts, there is no source output. The only way a person can get the source is to actually put the exact URL into the address bar. But no biggie.
