hyperlink

[fmardani]

Could someone please explain how it is possible to have a hyperlink and then when you hover over it the color of the text to change to something like grey and when you click on the hyperlink the colour changes and you get >> next to it?
Can it be done in stylesheet? if so how?
I have done the same kind of thing using a DataList though.
Thanks guys.

Yep, changing the color of a link is done with a style sheet: specifically using the a:hover tag where you specify the attributes of a link when the mouse is moved over it.

<style><!--
      BODY {
        font-family:Helvetica, Garamond, Arial;
           }
      A:link {
        color: #666666;
        text-decoration: none;}
      A:visited {
        color: #000000;
        text-decoration: none;}
      A:active {
        color: #111111;
        text-decoration: underline;}
      A:hover {
        color: #000000;
        text-decoration: underline;}
--></style>
</head>

In regards to changing the text of a link. What I would probably do is use the javascript innerHTML property that allows you to change the html of a tag
