Hi
Im a newbe to this. (using dreamweaver mx 2004 on a mac)
I have a website which I just used the properties box to choose text ect for all 6 pages, I was getting to the end of the website when I found that I wanted to be able to change the colour of my links.

One -white text on red background part of a bottom menue
Two -Normal links in the text. blue ect

Now my question to be able to do this do I have to go back and redue all my text as style sheets, (attached, external link) confusion. Before I can attach a thing for links.
I apologise for my lack of knowlege but im new to code.

Id appreciate some help please.
There are lots of tutorials to do all this from scratch but not to alter an existing site.

Pseudo-classes and container styles are what you need - here are some
tutorials.

You would only have to add the CSS to your current site (and perhaps some
container ID or class attributes).
