I have what one might call a "petite" menu bar to the left of my site on all
pages. Via Page Properties, I've set up my link font size and colors. They work
very well for the design.

However, this petite type size doesn't work well for links elsewhere on the
page. I've tried independently changing the font size (selecting just those
words, etc.), but the links continue to reflect the settings from Page
Properties.

I've futzed around with trying to set different link styles via CSS, but I am
not having much success. Am probably not doing it right.

Does anyone have any suggestions, or is this even done? Surely there Is a way
to have your links take on a different appearance other than what you have set
up for links under Page Properties? (But if applying a "span" by selecting and
choosing different attributes doesn't work, I'm not sure what would....???)

thanks much in advance -- C. Sinclaire

C. Sinclaire -

You need to utilize CSS and more specifically the container styles and
pseudo-classes you can setup with CSS. Here are some tutorials for you to read
through:
