Well being the CSS expert that i am........................not...................lol, why not give one set of links a class id and the other set another class id? like a:link.dark {...... } a:visited.dark {........ } and a:link.light {...... } a:visited.light {........ } Nicole _____________________________ (in reply to Lazykatz)

You'll notice that i've several classes of links in my style sheet, and when applying them in the website you'll notice from that code that you'll have to type: a: class="xxxxx" href="...... to differentiate between the different styles you're applying.
