The proper CSS code for changing the colour of your links is as follows...

A : Link {
text-decoration: none;
color:green;
}

Try it exactly like this...

<HTML>
<HEAD>

<STYLE type="text/css">

</STYLE>
</HEAD>

<BODY>
<P>
<A HREF="blinkies.html">Blinkies</A>
<P>
<A HREF="http://www.javascriptcity.com">JavaScript City</A>
<P>
<A HREF="http://www.pageresource.com/html/">HTML Pit Stop</A>
</BODY>
</HTML>

The problem was that there should be no space between A:Link ........my fault, sorry. Though it's a perfect example of how even stupid little things can screw up code.

here's the correct coding:

<html>
<head>
<title>SITE TITLE HERE</title>
<style type="text/css">

</style>
</head>

<body>
<p><a href="blinkies.html">Blinkies</a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.javascriptcity.com">JavaScript City</a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.pageresource.com/html/">HTML Pit Stop</a></p>
</body>
</html>

I corrected all coding errors that may cause it to not show up in some browsers :)
