Designing and Crafting Basic Pages
Text links are most often rendered with a blue color and underlined. Depending on the background
color for your page, you may want to change the color of text links to improve readability. You can
specify the document-link color by choosing Modify ➪ Page Properties and selecting the Links color
box. In Page Properties, you can also alter the color to which the links change after being selected
(the Visited Links color), and the color flashed when the link is clicked (the Active Links color).
Eliminating underlines from links
Disabling the underline for the anchor tag, <a>, which is normally associated with hyperlinked text,
is one modification commonly included in style sheets.
Be careful when using this technique. Underlined text is a standard method of indicating
a hyperlink on the Web, and some clients or users may find your pages not as intuitive if
the underline indicator is no longer visible.
To disable the underline on the anchor tag, follow these steps:
1. Open the CSS Styles panel by choosing Window ➪ CSS Styles. The CSS Styles panel,
shown in Figure 10-2, displays existing styles and provides controls for creating and man-
aging styles.
