When customizing the links:

Changing fonts and size: OK
Changing how links displays normaly. Color and underline: No effect.
Changing hover: color and underline: OK
Changing visit: color and underline. No effect.

I can see same problem when I use a picture for link when useing FIREFOX (not SAFARI). There is a square box around the picture (I have rounded corners) using same color as text.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

The webside is not public yet, but if you have to see it, please tell me.

Hi Boeing,

Select/Highlight the text of the link, open the Inspector, Link tab, Format. Apply underline or not, change colors as you wish.

Q1: Did you try hitting the "Use for New Links on Page" checkbox?
Q2: Do the styles get applied in iWeb itself?

Publish your website.

Q3: Did you try republishing the entire site?

If you usually hit only the "Publish" button go to File and try a "Publish entire site" (or "Publish all") instead.

Visit your website in local if you published your website to a folder or visit it on the web if you published to your server or MobileMe. Do changes display? If not...

Q4: Did you try emptying your browser's cache?

When editing a website, publishing and visiting the website frequently results in the browser caching/memorizing the page and after a while what you see is not the published version but the one your browser memorized.

In Safari go to Safari, Empty cache...
In Firefox go to Firefox, Preferences, Advanced, Network, and hit Clear now

Once you emptied the cache try reloading the page.

Q5: Did you try with another page?

Maybe it's just one page acting like that and you would have to delete and rebuild it.

If all the above didn't help try deleting the preferences file:
1. Quit iWeb
2. Delete the following file:
User/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iweb.plist
3. Relaunch iWeb
If that doesn’t work... Retry it but instead of relaunching iWeb in 3. restart the computer and relaunch iWeb

I currently have no other idea on what could be causing the problem or how to solve it since I never experienced it.

Regards,
Cédric

Now it works... Or at least it should work...

Code:
<div style="width: 220px; font-family: Trebuchet MS; font-size: 12pt">
<style type="text/css">
a:link {
color: #000000;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover {
color: #666666;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:visited {
color: #FF9900;
text-decoration: none;
}
</style>
<a href="http://web.me.com/bo.askne/BA41/iFRAME1.html" target="Showframe" class="class1">Jasmine och Alice</a><br>
<a href="http://web.me.com/bo.askne/BA41/iFRAME2.html" target="Showframe" class="class1">Karta</a><br>
<a href="http://web.me.com/bo.askne/BA41/iFRAME3.html" target="Showframe" class="class1">Att använda WIDGET HTML</a><br>
<a href="http://web.me.com/bo.askne/BA41/iFRAME4.html" target="Showframe" class="class1">En Dag i Trollhättan</a><br>
<a href="http://web.me.com/bo.askne/BA41/iFRAME5.html" target="Showframe" class="class1">HARMONY Fotografering</a><br>
<a href="http://web.me.com/bo.askne/BA41/iFRAME6.html" target="Showframe" class="class1">Bildspel GALLERY</a><br>
<a href="http://web.me.com/bo.askne/BA41/iFRAME7.html" target="Showframe" class="class1">Bildspel GALLERY WIDGET</a><br>
<a href="http://web.me.com/bo.askne/BA41/iFRAME8.html" target="Showframe" class="class1">NY SIDA</a><br>
</div>


Looks like the code on my website was wrong, deeply sorry about that!

Regards,
Cédric

Thank you so much.

I can tell you I have tried with other words like "text" etc.
I think you have understod that I can nothing about codes.
Thats why I use iWeb.
And thats why I like your website.

Regards
Bo
