Hi!

Thanks for your quick reply! After reading your post, I did some more testing - it turns out that it was the ebook that I was using as a test case - the links would not change from blue with the a{color:black} CSS entry. However, when I loaded other books, the entry worked fine to change the colour! Awesome! =)

I couldn't figure out why that specific book wouldn't change (I'm not a CSS expert) so I just used the !important tag to force it, and this worked.

Code:

a:link {
color: #ECF0F1 !important;
background:#2B2B2B !important;
}

Thanks again for your help!
