The default is blue when you link text to something.  How can you make it the color you want?

Thanks,

There's a few ways.  You can set it in the body tag of the page....
BODY blah blah link="color" vlink="color" (for visited links)
Or you can put a font tag wrapped in the A tag with the text, and the text will show the color of the font tag.

<body link="color" vlink="color" alink="color"> link is original link color vlink is visited link color alink is active link color. and if it is html color code don't forget the # sign it would be like #000000 or whatever number letter combination it may be if you didn't already know that.

and if you dont want to use the actual hexidecimal code which is the #000000 for black or #ffffff for white you could just say

<body link="white" vlink="green" alink="silver" bgcolor="red"> and so on...

There's also a glow text javascript that adds a bit of effect.  It's at http://twebman.lunarpages.com/js/glowlink.htm

Netscape?  What's that?  OHHH YEAH. Lemme check...
Yeah, doesn't work, but doesn't mess anything up.  Using NS7.
