I have never used both class and id for css links, I am trying to now and it is not working. Can you let me know how it should look? Thanks.

a.twocol:link #footer, a.twocol:visited #footer {
color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: underline;
font-size: 10px;
}
a.twocol:hover #footer {
color: #CCCCCC; text-decoration: none;
font-size: 10px;
}

#footer a.twocol:hover{blah blah blah;} should work

A link to the page would help. First off, CSS rules go in order of specificity; that is, say, from an outer named div to one nested further in. Also, style rules for a go in order, link, visited, hover, active (LoVeHAte is the mnemonic). Sorry to say, but that CSS is a mess. What you need is something like:

.twocol a:link{
color: #fff;
text-decoration: underline;
font-size: 10px;
}
/*insert rule for visited*/
.twocol a:hover{
color: #ccc;
text-decoration: none;
font-size: 10px;
}

You shouldn't need to define it more than that, but if the footer ID is the parent, then it would read #footer.twocol a: link, and so on.



Edit: LnR, should I revise this in any way?

I tried that and it didnt work for me. I am using a CSS layout if that makes a difference.

Ok what I did was took out the class and that did it. Thanks!

#footer a:hover{blah blah blah;}

Sounds like a specificity issue, but at least you got it working
