    Video Transcript

    "Now we're going to change the color of our text links. Usually they default to blue, just the pretty much standard blue. If you look right now on our website, are, I've replaced the background in the logo to be all white and our logo, or our link color is coming up as black right now. You can tell it's a link because it's underlined. But if we wanted to change that to say to like a really just obnoxious pink, we would go in here, in our body bracket after text and background color, we've got the text set to black and the background color set to white. We go in here, add a space, type the word link, equals, quotation mark, and a really bright pink is ff00cc, another quotation mark. We're going to save that, go over here look at our link and refresh it, and there it is. It came up like a bright pink. That'll be every link on your page. Now if we try to go to the link, well I'm not connected to the Internet, go back but we can change it to where when we roll over the link it changes color or once we've been to the page and come back it'll be a different color so that you know you've always been there, already been there, but we'll get to that."
