[thelist] CSS problems

Hi all,

In a site I am working on, the <body> tag makes the regular links #CCCC99
(darkish beige), but I need the default link color in CSS reading browsers to be
#333366 (dark blue). However, they are still showing up beige--I have in my
stylesheet:

A {
	color : #333366;
	text-decoration : none;
}


A:HOVER {
	color : #333366;
	text-decoration : underline;
}

A:VISITED {
	color : #333366;
	text-decoration : none;
}

A:LINK {
	color : #333366;
	text-decoration : none;
}

Shouldn't this override the <body> tag links? I can't make the body tag give
blue links, because if it's the default link color, the navigation links will
not be visible in a blue side column on older browsers.

Thanks,
Gina
