"Roll over" links

Question

I want all my links to be black at all times except when I
roll over them, then I want them to be white,
I have changed "roll over" links to white in "page
properties", this works fine. But as soon as I change "visited
links" to a different color than standard the roll over links
won´t turn white anymore.
Is there a way to fix this ??

That means your rules are in the wrong order. All other
things being equal,
later rules override earlier rules. If you were specifying
all four link
states, you would do them in this order:
link
visited
hover
active
If you're doing things via DW's tabs and not looking at the
CSS code,
specify visited rules before specifying hover rules.
Have you worked directly with CSS at all? You need to find
your a:visited
code and move it.
You need to put this:
a:visited {
[your rules]
above this:
a:hover {
[your rules]
Be sure to cut and paste the entire rule, including the
closing curly
brackets.
