Hi Shirley You will need to use the cascade to identify the elements you want to target. For example: [html] <div id="lightback">light background <a href="#">link</a></div> <div id="darkback">dark background <a href="#">link</a></div> [css] /* backgrounds */ div#lightback { background-color: #fff; } div#darkback { background-color: #000; } /* links */ #lightback a { color: #000; } #darkback a { color: #fff; } Regards Scott Swabey Design & Development Director - Lafinboy Productions www.lafinboy.com | www.thought-after.com ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
