CSS link color

[robsig]

I apparently don't know CSS all that well.

I am simply trying to have the text links in the nav column be white. And my
other text links in the main part of my site be purple. But that seems easier
said than done for some reason.

I defined a css style called button that was white, with the link properties I
wanted. Highlighted the text links in the navbar and applied the style to
them. But they are still the default style.

Anyone know why? It's probably simple, something I overlooked, but I use some
help...

Thanks,
Robert

<div id="style1"><a href="page1.html">Page 1</a></div>
<div id="style2"><a href="page2.html">Page 2</a></div>

#style1 a { color:white; }
#style1 a:hover { color:purple; }
#style2 a { color:purple; }
#style2 a:hover { color:white; }

This CSS and markup will give you two links - one is white with a purple
rollover, and the other is purple with a white rollover.
