Overriding CSS Hi:  I remember this being discussed in my last HTML class, but now I can't remember the answer: How do I override an element in CSS?  For example, I have my links fonts appearing as a specific color when using CSS.  In a couple of instances I want to change that color without disabling the CSS attributes for the whole page.  So for these couple of links that I would like to display differently, how do I do that? Thanks for any assistance. Started By mcpenn on Sep 5, 2005 at 6:40:11 PM
