Hi everyone,

I always used Dreamweaver to make my webpages, but the dreamweaver stylesheets aren't doing what I wanted them to, so I studied Lissa's CSS instruction pages. With that I typed out my own code, but now that I try and use it, just parts of it work.

Can I post the code here for help? How would I do that, if I can? Also, how would I integrate the code into Dreamweaver. I tried saving my code as a *.css file, but that doesn't work ;) I also tried pasting it into the head tags of an existing page, but as I said, only some parts work.

Help...lol...I am so lost and I was so proud typing it out...lol

Try this

<style type="text/css">

A:link {text-decoration:underline overline; color:#844C66}
A:visited {text-decoration:underline overline; color:#844C66}
A:active {text-decoration:underline overline; color:#844C66}
A:hover {text-decoration:underline overline; color:#844C66; background-color: #D8BBC9; cursor: crosshair;}

body{
background-color: #ffffff;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #844C66;
font-size: 10pt;
}
</style>

Thanks for your help :) It works when I copy and paste it into the head tags now.
