CSS question

Check http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/select...pseudo-classes ,
and scroll down to the 1st paragraph below the example shown, yes, the
order you declare the rules/classes/selectors, does do override/inherit,
thus the name Cascadind.

Does this alwas happen? do I HAVE to do two sets of css links?

Here is the css...

.red_links {
font-family: "Courier New", Courier, mono;
font-size: 12px;
font-style: normal;
color: #a30000;
}

.red_links a:link{
font-family: "Courier New", Courier, mono;
font-size: 12px;
font-style: normal;
color: #a30000;
text-decoration: underline;
}
.red_links a:hover{
font-family: "Courier New", Courier, mono;
font-size: 12px;
font-style: normal;
color: #a30000;
text-decoration: underline;

}

If I'm reading you right ( ie 2 seperate links, 1 always red and
underlined, and 1 always black but underlined only on rollover) then the
following will work:

a:link.red_links {
font-family: "Courier New", Courier, mono;
font-size: 12px;
font-style: normal;
color: #a30000;
}
a:hover.red_links {
font-family: "Courier New", Courier, mono;
font-size: 12px;
font-style: normal;
color: #a30000;
}

a:link.black_links {
font-family: "Courier New", Courier, mono;
font-size: 12px;
font-style: normal;
color: #000000;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover.black_links {
font-family: "Courier New", Courier, mono;
font-size: 12px;
font-style: normal;
color: #000000;
text-decoration: underline;
}

you need to set the class for black links in your html to "black_links"
