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!

  • 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?

  • Hyperlinks changing color

    Whenever I validate that links are pointing to the correct
    files by using the "Insert or Edit Hyperlink" button it changes the
    font color of my link when I exit that function. I am using a CSS
    and it is ignoring the colors that I have in there. Is there a way
    to prevent this?

    Two things about hyperlinks in the css file:
    Whichever link states you do not configure will often revert
    to the browser default.
    Your link styles (dynamic pseudo-classes) must appear in
    "LoVe HAte" order (
    Link,
    Visited,
    Hover,
    Active).
    a:link {
    a:visited {
    a:hover {
    a:active {
    } (a:active is rarely used, so it's usually just LVH)
    Good luck,

  • Why don't my photos change at the right time in my iMovie HD?

    I have searched other people's questions like this and no one has gotten a straight answer. I've imported photos to iMovie HD and set them up to run for 3 seconds each, but when I press play to preview them, they don't change at 3 seconds. Some don't change for 5 seconds, others show up for a split second and disappear into the next photo because all the photos are behind. The playhead runs over each photo, but the image displayed doesn't change when the clip does. What am I missing?
    Please help if you can! I need to finish this wedding slideshow for my wedding on Friday.
    Thanks!

    I would just like anyone else with this problem to know that I found a solution. Not sure if it's the right one, or the one you're looking for, but it at least plays your photos on time!
    Instead of setting your photos for 3 seconds (if that's roughly how long you want them to play), instead you need to set them for a longer period (say, 6-7 seconds) and then add transitions in between photos. For myself, I added Cross Dissolve at 2 seconds for each transition and, viola, I now have a 3 second clip of my photo in between the crossovers between each photo. I hope this makes sense. Apparently iMovie prefers if the photos are completely professional, not just half there with regular choppy transitions!
    Hope this actually helps someone else... It's now 3:30 am and I am definitely ready for some beauty sleep before the wedding.

  • Why don't my hyperlinks work in firefox?

    everything works fine in safari. but not everyone uses safari, so…
    was wondering if anyone has any ideas re what to do.
    my site is kleinmarc.com. and the links that are the problem are the picture links in the alt section and the web section.
    for whatever reason you can see that there are links there as the page is drawing up but once it's done the pictures go to being dumb and no ammount of clicking does anything.
    I tried rebuilding the pages but that didn't work.
    help.

    My two sites worked fine in firefox until today. Suddenly the navigation bar is no longer showing up. www.reallyreallybig.com works fine in safari but nothing else... ANyone else having this issue? Firefox or Apple just change something in their latest updates?

  • 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:

    Dear Sadashivan
    Thanks for your info.
    I tried the way you mentioned.
    However, the thing I want to do is not to change the font color of specified column.
    The thing I want to do is to setup the threshhold such as percentage or amount
    and emphasize the data which over the threshhold by changing the color
    automatically.
    Thanks anyway.

  • Footer Isn't Changing Color

    Hi, I am trying to change the color of the footer bar to #333 but when I added color: #33333; to the code it didn't change the color. Can someone please look at the page in Firebug and tell me what I am doing wrong. Thanks.
    1. Web Page: http://www.buzzfx.ca/2d_character.html
    2. I selected the Footer Bar. <div id="footer">
    3. Then in the right CSS panel I added: color: #333333;
    4. Why does the footer not change color to? #333333;
    (Below is the original code with the change I made in "Blue")
    #footer { border-top: 1px solid #E5E5E5; }
    #footer { clear: both; 
        color: #333333;
        margin-top: 20px;
        overflow: hidden;
        padding-top: 20px;

    Perfect John, thanks.
    1. I want to make the footer wider and taller too. How would I add (width:960px;) to do this?
    #footer {border-top: 1px solid #E5E5E5;
    #footer {clear: both;
        width: 960px;
        background-color: #333;
        margin-top: 20px;
        overflow: hidden;
        padding-top: 20px;
    2. What do (clear: both;) and (overflow: hidden;) do?
    clear: both;
    overflow: hidden;

  • Some visited links don't change color

    on some of my hyperlinks (that go to other pages in the same
    file) don't change color after they've been visited... example:
    they start out regular "hyperlink" blue... then after visiting they
    should change (e.g., to purple) but they don't.
    I read in the knowledge base that for popups, the color WON'T
    change because of a javascript issue... however, the "non changing"
    links are not always for pop ups... as stated above.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks...
    kb

    Thanks, Dimaxum...I've already read this thread, and every other thread about the subject on the internet. I am totally convinced this is a Safari issue because the links have always changed color for me using FireFox...always.
    I'm sure there could be other situations where something else caused this problem and it was apparent on both browsers, but not in my case.
    On my wife's Mac this is not a problem on Safari...it's something in my User folder causing it. For now I've just made FireFox the default browser and I'll keep searching. Or the next time I wipe my hard drive and rebuild everything (I do this every six months or so...old Windows habit that isn't necessary) I'm sure it will work fine then.
    I was at the Apple store yesterday and tried several Macs there...they all worked fine. This is just somethiing on my machine.
    Thanks for your help.

  • 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?

  • Changing hyperlink text colors.

    I saw few posts asking about changing hyperlink text colors. And there are many camps regarding this topic. Suzanne Boben would recommend editing template XML . Some would recommend editing published HTML code. Some would recommend editing CSS code.
    But it came down to couple things.
    1) proficient in XML, HTML or CSS
    2) tried different colors, but it did turned out as expected
    One easy way is editing CSS files, this only apply to pages' hyperlink text; if your text got turn to PNGs, read no further .
    iWeb generates a CSS file for the associated HTML page - CSS file is in the Page_files folder.
    Edit the CSS files and keep copies of them, then you won't have to edit them again the next time you publish you sites.
    These CSS files are quite easy to understand, all you have to do is to look for a { , a:visited { and a:hover { .
    They contain RGB (Red Green Blue) values for link color, visited link color and rollover color.
    But what about those #8000FF and #4c4c4c?
    Well, I know they are RGB hexadecimal color values, but I don't what colors they are, so I came up with Argiope (Argiope is a family colorful spiders).
    It's a colors picker application to help with choosing background color, link color and rollover color. It'll give you the exact RGB hexadecimal value of chosen color.
    You can find Argiope here. Enjoy

    It can be done, but I have to do too much works.
    I already have a a script to do that, but it's quite complicated for an average bear.
    http://www.geocities.com/[email protected]/iWeb_utils --> LinksColors.zip
    Does just that, it is flexible, you can configure the colors for individual page, but it is quite different to configure. Look at the colors.txt and page.txt.
    If you really want to know more, ping me.

  • Why am I unable to change text color from black in LR5 book module?

    Why am I unable to change text color from black in LR5 Book Module?

    I'm assuming you clicked on the color patch besides the word <Character> to open the color picker window.
    At the right side of this window there is a vertical bar that has 2 horizontal black lines at the bottom.
    This is actually a slider. Pull it upwards with the color picker and color will appear in the window.

    Can anyone tell me why this picture changes color when I try to download/upload it?  It is the exact same picture I have taken from the same location.  The image on the left is via preview and the image on the right is what is shows like when I try to download it.  I have emailed it to myself and it shows fine on the computer and in CS4, but when I look at the download via my phone or on another computer it shows the wonky color on the right.  I have checked the color space shows RGB/8 bit.  Any ideas why or how to fix it?  It isn't with any one specific session.... and I've tried it on both my desktop and my laptop- saved image to an external hard drive and to drop box.  I've tried sending the image to canvas on demand, my email, mpxipro, POST editing- all the same result.  Please HELP!!  What am I doing wrong?

    Most of the time you see something like that. The image in question has a color profile other then sRGB. Some image viewers/displayers are color managed and others are not.  So the image do not look the same in all of the applications you use. So colors seem to change.
    Try converting it to sRGB color and see if then looks the same all around. Also I think PC and Mac displays are set to different gamma something like 1.8 and 2.2
    Though I'm colorblind I even see color variations.
