this page.</A> (I stuck a hidden anchor tag there: <A NAME="top"> </a>)
Use anchors to improve navigability, but remember that multiple linked pages will download quicker than one huge page requiring lots of P {border-style: solid; border-color: gray;}
Figure 7-42. Borders have many aspects
By default, a single color value will be applied to all four sides,as with the paragraph in the previous example. On the other hand, ifyou supply four color values, you can get a different color on eachside. Any type of color value can be used, from named colors tohexadecimal and RGB values.
Figure 7-43 shows us varying shades of gray forborders. Thanks to the grayscale nature of this book, I've been A:active {color: silver;} A:visited {color: #333333;} /* a very dark gray */
Figure 6-4. Changing colors of hyperlinks
This sets all anchors with the class external (<A CLASS="external" HREF="...">) to be silver, instead of medium gray. They'll still be a dark gray once they've been visited, of course, unless you add a special rule for that as well:
BODY {color: black;}text
element, its width will tend toward zero. This is exactly the
opposite of the normal horizontal rules, where
width is increased until the seven properties
equal the parent's width. A floated
element's width will default to auto, which
then defaults to zero, which is then increased to the browser's
minimum allowed width. Thus, a floated paragraph could literally be
one character wide -- assuming that to be the browser's
minimum value for width. In practice, it's

foreground color of a given element. For text, this sets the text
color. The value of color is inherited by any borders of an element,
unless they have had a color set border-color.
