  I want to change the font color when inserting a link to a hue that compliments the background and help differentiate a link from the copy.

  Thanks,

  CML

  Try this, it works for me. Use any color you want if you don’t want red:

  <a href="?"><font color="red">LINK TITLE</font></a>

  Thank you for the suggestion, sensuouscurmudgeon. I am trying, but I’m not getting it. LINK IN CAPS

  Current CSS

  Visual: This is a test, only a test. Had it been a REAL EMERGENCY…and blah blah blah.
  HTML: This is a test, only a test. Had it been a REAL EMERGENCY…and blah blah blah.

  Edit: This is a test, only a test. Had it been a <font color=”red”>http://www.princeofwales.gov.uk/>/font>real emergency…and blah blah blah.

  Visual: This is a test, only a test. Had it been a http://www.princeofwales.gov.uk/>/font>real emergency…and blah blah blah.

  The following line is all red in the visual. http://www.princeofwales.gov.uk/>/font>real emergency…and blah blah blah.

  My mistake. I cut and paste from draft. I’ll try again later.

  I don’t know if the code I posted earlier works in these forums, or if the software here overrides it. I’ll give it a try. This should be red:

  <font color=”red”>this is your prior comment</font>.

  Even if that’s not red, the code should work in your blog.

  Obviously, it doesn’t work here.

  To change the font color of a link, in the visual editor, highlight the word (or words), then choose a color from the “A” icon. Then, without de-selecting the word add your link (chain icon).

  Brillant. As a matter of fact, I just figured it out, and wanted to get back to everyone. Still, brilant, must be your ESP. It’s the small things that matter, isn’t it? Thanks.
