Rather than asking questions in a piecemeal fashion, might I suggest you stop whatever it is you're trying to do and learn CSS thoroughly. Having myself, or others, passing along tidbits of advice won't help you in the long run, but leave you running backwards and forwards every time you need assistance with the next little thing. I'm not trying to be mean, so don't take it that way, but you can't hope to be productive if you carry on this way.
if i want the font for linkks, can i also specify that there is no color change.You can, but you should be wary of doing so. Unless it's obvious - and I mean to strangers, not you - that some content is a link, you should always make sure that links are distinct from everything else.
To style a link, you need to use a specific selector (that is, a selector which explicitly identifies an a element) in order to override the user agent's default style sheet.
a {
background-color: ...;
color: white;
}Whenever you set colours, you should always set both the background any foreground colour simultaneously, otherwise a user agent with an unexpected default colour combination may render your page unreadable.
how would you specify the size of the fontIf you're specifying a type face at the same time, you can set the size using the shorthand font property.
font: 100% sans-serif;Font sizes are best expressed as percentages (of the user's default) and should not go lower than 85% in the vast majority of cases. However, you can use other units. The size will always go before the family list.
