Hi There!

Can someone please answer my question?

How do you make a link (say I do a link via. picture like "click on this

picture to enter the website" or w/e) white?

It keeps on appearing as blue and after I click it it's purple, but I want it

to stay transparent and white all the time!

can someone please help???

THANKS,

SNIR

Blue and purple are the standard colours for links (link and visited). You
need to use CSS - here you are:

I prefer throbbing red but each to their own.

You've already had answers that describe 'how' to achieve the effect.

If you want it to stay white *all the time* use the markup below, but it's
not generally considered good practice to do so as it can confuse people who
are used to the blue/purple effects.

Try ...

<body link="#FFFFFF" vlink="#FFFFFF" alink="#FFFFFF">
<a href="URL or page Link"><img src="image.jpg"></a>

If you want the new link page or image to open in a 'New Window' it's the
markup below ...

<body link="#FFFFFF" vlink="#FFFFFF" alink="#FFFFFF">
<a href="URL or page Link" target="_blank">><img src="image.jpg"></a>
