So ive got these footer links and they are blue. Unfortunately so is my footer background... any way to fix this?
 
LOL Seriously? Either change your background color or your link color. :FACEPALM:

After face-palming your mom I still got no results. Of course I already tried this do you think im some sort of an idiot??

Actual help from some one whose not an ignorant bastard would be much appreciated.

cheers

Find your link div in your CSS doc. and change the color. Why wouldn't that work? If you wanna send me your CSS I'll do it for you.

Ill give it a quick look and if I can't fix it ill pm you the css. Thanks for being kind!
 
If your div is called #links then to color those links you'd have to use something like
Code:
#links a {
color:#fff;
}
But it depends on how those links are structured, can't say for sure untill i see the code.
 
You can change the colors of your link for hover links and visited links individually.
 
#your-footer-div a, #your-footer-div a:link
{
#color-code
}

if u use class for ur footer, just replace # with .
 
If you did not succeed to solve your problem just shoot me a PM (or let me know your skype ID) and I will help you out :-)

When you add color to a hyperlink, it will change back to the orginal blue hyperlink color after your clicked on it.
If you want the color to stay permanent, you need to use CSS.

Put this in your <header>;
Code:
<style type="text/css">
<!--
.style1 {color: #000000}
-->
</style>
Now add this to your hyperlink
Code:
class="style1"
You should end up with this;

Code:
<a href="bhw.html" class="style1">More money!</a>

Can you post the URL of your website because it's impossible to see the problem unless you post the URL.
 
Ugjunk, its a well known problem with HTML. See my post above you.
 
try to change color on the link itself

Code:
<a style="color: red">

Good luck..

This wouldn't work as changing the color on the element wouldn't change the color for all of the pseudo classes (a:visited, a:hover, a:active) etc.

Remember when using CSS on anchors you have to be specific to the anchor. If the link is inside of a container and you specify the text color of the container to be white, the links inside the container would stay the default color - so you would specify the container and then the anchor element like:
Code:
.footer a {
color: #FFF;
}
 
use inline css like this
<a href="#" style="color:white">link</a>
you can change white with hexa code also
 
if you're changing the color of a link you will probably want to change the a:visited property as well.

#links a:visted {
color: #whatever
}
 
a:hover
a:active
a:visited
a:focus

some of them might help you. Although it is not easy to fix problem without knowing the issue, you can try firebug which works on chrome/firefox to fix css. You can check your style rules for which line is effecting the color. Please google for firebug and try to fix with it if you can't provide any link to your site.
 
Damn, read some css tuts first before making this kind of threads.
