Ok, this has really been bugging me, i've been sitting for hours trying to figure this out..

The problem is I cant change the size or color of my font for my links

At the top of my webpage I have some word links that the user can click on to goto another page. In Dream weaver it shows correctly exactly how it is suppose to look, then when I upload it to the web server all the word links are a really small font, like 8pxls or something..

the link is V oice F A C tor .com without the spaces.. the home page is the one im having trouble with.. ahhhhh

any help would be greatly apprciated. It is probuly something simple but I am having a brain fart.

Your using CSS, these settings are typically stored in that file. Look for and open stylesheet.css. Odds are Dreamweaver will be no help here, you will need to find links, their corresponding code (height, color) and change them.

I apprciate the quick response, I will do that. I have limited knowledge of CSS.
It is basically like a style/settings file for the website, correct?
Thanks for the help!

Correct, a style sheet contains sets of styles that can be applied to elements of a website.

In your case the stylesheet is called stylesheet.css and is in a folder called styles in the root of your hosting area.

Well surely you can just put something like this at the top of your coding?


<style>
a:hover{color:#ffffff}
a {color:#00ff00}
</style>


Google it for a things such as underlines and strikethroughs.

Remember that most browsers won't apply formatting to just "a"
You should use:

a:link {color:blue; }


It'd be best to put this into an external stylesheet, as this will make the change site-wide.
