a:link {color: #FF0000}
a:visited {color: #00FF00}
a:hover {color: #FF00FF}
a:active {color: #0000FF}

a:link {
color: #A21569;
}
a:visited {
color: #A21569;
}
a:hover {
color: #A21569;
}
a:active {
color: #A21569;
}

I want to set them inside the body tag:

BODY {
font-family: "Trebuchet MS", Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 14pt;
color: 193c24;
background-color: e4f9cc;

}

thats not the proper way to do it.

in css its a seperate tag
in html its like <body alink=green etc

Darkland · 03-30-2005, 02:17 PM

Well it doesn't really make sense what your trying to do, but here are your options.

1. If you want something simple in the body for links then it would simply be:
<body link="#0000FF" vlink="#66FF33" alink="#FF0000">

2. If it has to be CSS then you can either but this in your header or call to a css sheet:
<style>
a:link {color: #FF0000;
}

a:visited {color: #66FF33;
}

a:active {color: #0000FF;
}
</style>

The only real thing you can do as far as putting css in your body tag is to call to a particular element in the css by use of Class or Id selectors. I am by no means an expert and maybe someone else here knows more than I do and knows a better way to do it.

Best advice to you is go to a book store and pick up Cascading Style Sheets by O'Reilly. CSS is very easy to learn.

But it's basically the same since both covers the whole html page

a:active {color:white}
a:visited{ color:white}

Search on CSS childs and you can read about it.

Not sure who your talking about but that pretty much just reiterated what I said.

I cannot imagine why you are being asked to do it this way because it is absolutely the wrong way to go about it, but if you insist:

<body style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; color: #193c24; background-color: #e4f9cc;">

You cannot however set the link attributes in this way. For those, the options have already been suggested.

And btw font sizes in pt (as opposed to px) do not render the same size in every browser...
