95% of all of my errors within sites are because I overlook the obvious. It is so frustraing when you keep banging your head against a brick wall!!!

The only consolation I find is that I would say most people are the same!

YIPIE!!!

It doth work. Thank you for all of your help.
It is odd that I never thought to combine the two. I allways seem to overlook the obvious. But it works now and I can only express my joy with this.....

That is definitely the problem, the only way to 100% ensure 1 stylesheet rule over the other is to take advantage of the !important rule. Consolidate these into one, then try something like this:

a:link { color: #000000; text-decoration:none; }
a:visited { color: #000000; text-decoration:none;}
a:active { color: #000000; text-decoration:none;}
a:hover { color: #FF0000; text-decoration:none;}
a:link.flow { color: #000000; text-decoration:none; }
a:visited.flow { color: #000000; text-decoration:none;}
a:active.flow{ color: #000000; text-decoration:none;}
a:hover.flow { color: #0099ff; text-decoration:none;}

Then all you need do is call them separately in the href tag.

Are you using two separate css files? If so, why? This could be the problem, I've never tried it myself.

Try consolidating it all into one css.

OK???

I have done that. Yet it still effects the rest of the links on the page that do not have the same classname.
Here you can see if I am doing something wrong. This is an example of the styles that I am trying to get to work on this page.

style1.css

body
header
all four of the a:whatever

styleNAV.css

a:link.nav
a:hover.nav
a:active.nav
a:visited.nav

There it is.
Thanks for the help....

you need to place the class within the href tag itself

nope

I have tried to do as you said and all it seems to do is either use one or the other. I have assigned a classname to both areas and I am using the tag. I get it to work however I still can't control where the CSS works.
Is there a place on the net that talks of such things?

Classes

You would use classes for each pseudo-class.

a:link.classname
a:active.classname
a:visited.classname
a:hover.classname

like that.
