Change color of hyperlinks

Hi! I am new to iWeb. I have had no problems with creating hyperlinks, but after they have been used they turn to a pale color which is hard to read wth my background. Is there a way that I can specify the color that the links will change to after they have been used? Many thanks!

hi anthony.
it works your way, but only for one link.
it doesnt work, if i wish to turn only parts of the text in hyperlinks (if i need to have several links in one text box).
u can have a look here: http://www.hiroi.at/hiroi%20michiru%20ripplinger%20trio/links.html
i couldn't change the color into black (it turns automatically into grey), so i had to "lighten" the picture to make my links visible.
is that a bug in iweb?
best,

How do I change color of hyperlink search results in WebHelp Pro?

I'm trying to figure out how to change the color of search result hyperlinks when using WebHelp Pro in RH8. The links currently are vibrant blue and purple after clicked on. I can't find anywhere in the style sheet or in the skin editor options to define this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In your .css file, use something like the following; the "A:" would be your default link, and the "A.topic:" would be a different class of link (we use it for some in-topic navigation links). Note that the order in which the qualifiers appear is important. Follow the LoVeHate method (Link, Visited, Hover).
Feel free to try it and use your own combinations (you might not want the expanded letter-spacing, for example). We also reversed the underline format from the default html (none for link and visited, underline for hover).
A:link,
A:visited {
color: #0000CD;
letter-spacing: 0.25pt;
text-decoration: none;
A:hover {
color: #000080;
letter-spacing: 0.25pt;
text-decoration: underline;
You would add the class=topic qualifier to your links for this class of link (a class=topic href="targettopic.htm")
A.topic:link,
A.topic:visited {
color: #0000CD;
font-size: 8pt;
font-weight: normal;
margin-left: 10px;
margin-top: 0pt;
margin-bottom: 0pt;
letter-spacing: 0.25pt;
text-decoration: none;
A.topic:hover {
color: #000080;
font-size: 8pt;
font-weight: normal;
letter-spacing: 0.25pt;
margin-top: 0pt;
margin-bottom: 0pt;
margin-left: 10px;
text-decoration: underline;
Good luck,

Change Color of Hyperlink

Any one knows how to change the color of a hyperlink in iWeb?
Just changing the color of the Fond does not work...

This is currently not possible through iWeb directly. But I believe that Cyclosaurus has a script or some pointers on doing just that. It requires some mucking around in the published html code.

Is there a way to show by change of color which hyperlinks I have already opened? Old Firefox did that, 4.o doesn't Help

Thanks

Color of Hyperlink Changes When I Convert a Document Created in Pages to a PDF

I am currently using Pages 09 to design an eBook. When I convert my Pages document to a PDF some of the hyperlinks change colors from medium to dark blue. I am currenlty using the latest version of Adobe Reader (9.46). I have been to Apple store to try and address this issue, but they can not correct it. If I open the document in Preview or Safari, it works fine. There is only a problem when I open the document in Adobe Reader. I would greatly appreciate your help in getting this fixed. Does anyone know what the problem is here and how to fix it? Thanks in advance for your help!

I am currenlty using the latest version of Adobe Reader (9.46).
The latest version of Adobe Reader is 10.1.1.

Help please-Text hyperlink does not change color on Safari?

I have set up certain links on my page to change color once they have been scrolled over or clicked. After publishing my site this feature is not active on Safari, but works on Firefox. I have visited other sites that have been made on iWeb and seen that this feature is active on Safari, so I know it is possible to create this feature. If there are any suggestions or tricks that would help me I would greatly appreciate it.

I am having the exact same problem. I cross-posted your submission to jaycheryl's thread after confirming, with my pages, your bottom-line observation that Firefox displays the code correctly.
The only difference in our situations is that I didn't edit any colors. I'm just using one of iWeb's stock themes. Some of my hyperlinks are OK in Safari and all of the iWeb created hyperlinks, e.g. the <next> and <previous> blog navigation buttons are OK even on new pages.
p.s. I don't see, or can't link to the "Helpful" answers available: 2 . "Solved" answers available: 1 displayed at the top of the thread?

Why don't my hyperlinks change color?

My hyperlinks don't change color when I try them in a browser or on my iWeb site. They all work fine but I don"t get that satisfying color change. I am using iWeb 06. Do I have to upgrade to 08?

If it's not your taste it's unsatisfying and problematic to you which should be enough to justify a inquiry towards solution without option about what others think is unsatisfying or not to them.
You posted about iWeb '06 here's a solution for said version.
When you Publish from iWeb you get a .HTML file and a .CSS file for each page you've created. The CSS is the styles for each of your pages and the color of the hyperlinks is a style you want to change.
When you look at the CSS file opened in Text Edit it will have a section that looks like this:
a {
color: #453c3c;
text-decoration: underline;
a:visited {
color: #666666;
text-decoration: underline;
a:hover {
color: #000000;
text-decoration: underline;
You can change the alpha-numeric values for the regular, hover and visited behaviors of how the color changes for your links.
Hope that helps!

Hyperlinks don't change color

Why don't my hyperlinks change color? They all work fine but I can"t seem to get them to do the color change when I roll over them. The hyperlinks remain black . I am using iWeb 06. Do I have to update to iWeb 08?

Tod ~ Yes, you would have to upgrade to iWeb 2 in iLife '08. Then in Inspector's Link tab, you'll have a Format tab via which you can specify the colors of your hyperlinks. This video tutorial shows that Format tab, although its use is not demonstrated:

Followed hyperlinks in PowerPoint 07 WON'T change color

I have created a jeopardy-style game in PPT and the hyperlinks aren't cooperating. When I click on one of the options, it takes me to the appropriate slide, but when I return to the main slide the link I previously clicked did NOT change color.
This makes it difficult for users to remember which options have already been used. I have tried creating custom colors via Themes but that didn't work. Help!

I found a work-around for this using custom animation. First, I setup boxes (for game squares) in my Jeopardy game as hyperlinks (i.e., entire box/square is a hyperlink). However, I did not enter any text in the "hyperlink" boxes.
Instead, I placed a regular textbox in the middle of the hyperlink box. In the textbox, I typed in my dollar amounts (in white font). I then setup a custom animation to turn the text in the textbox to blue (the background color of the game board).
In the "Timing" option for the animation, I setup the Trigger as "On click of" and then selected the "hyperlink" box.
Now, when any area inside the "hyperlink" box is clicked, it triggers the color change animation. This gets around the bug that doesn't change visited hyperlinks in PowerPoint. Hope this helps!

How do I keep the visited hyperlinks from changing color?

I am looking to keep the colors of visited sites, the same as unvisited chosen by the hosting site. For example; when I visit eBay, their hyperlink colors are different depending on location. They are black in the far left, and do not change color when visited. However, the hyperlinks in the center are blue, then change to purple after they are visited. I would like for the hosting site to use their own colors, but not differentiate from the unvisited links to the visited ones.
I know I can change the color of the visited links to be the same as the non-visited links(FF>Options>Content>Colors>"change"Link Colors), but this is not what I am trying to achieve. When I do that, ALL links are my chosen color, even the links on the far left on the eBay page. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Hi raven0, I'm not seeing this issue on Craigslist, although we're probably in different cities.
Does this occur on other sites as well, such as search engine results? If so, it could indicate that Firefox isn't saving history for those page loads. You could check the Library dialog and see whether the individual pages are listed. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+h
* History > Show All History
If there's no history for those page loads, is it possible that the pages are being opened in private windows, or that history has become disabled in some other way?

Text Hyperlink changes colors--how to change it?

When I change colored text into a link, the color of the text changes to a different color. It looks bad on the background color. When I move the pointer over the link, the word color changes to the color I selected. Can I change this or select the color it changes to?

How To Make Shapes Change Colors When Clicking on them. Example Sheet Sales Data.xlsx template with Excel 2013

My question is related to the Sales Data.xlsx template that comes with Excel 2013
IN this workbook is a sheet named Sales Data. It has, 3 shapes. One each for each of the tab sheets in the workbook. When I click on the 'Sales Report' shape it selects the sales report tab. When you do this the shape changes color and the 'Sales Data' shape
also changes color.
However I'm unable to figure out how the colors are changing.
I don't see any macros in the workbook/worksheet. Nor do I see any code for worksheet events. I don't see any modules in VBA either. I think what is happening is that there are 2 shapes. When you click on one, the one shape goes to the background and the
other one comes to the foreground.
I'm no sure how it's doing that.
Can someone look at this template, Sales Data.xlsx that comes with Excel and explain how this functionality works?
Thank You

The shapes are exactly as I suspected, each of 3 sheets has 3 'navigation' shapes. The shape with the same name as the sheet has no hyperlink and is coloured differently to indicate it refers to the active sheet. The other two have hyperlinks linked to respective
sheets. 3x3 shapes, 9 in total, none of them ever change colour!
It's logical though not necessary to name each shape same as the sheet it links to, but they'd work just as well with their original default names.
For aesthetics, the shapes that refer to own sheet have a horizontal line on top, actually two shapes as a group.
If still confused copy each set of 3 shapes to a 4th sheet, or open two new windows so you can see all three sheets at the same time.
