TOC color in MOBI

[kamanza]

Editing a book in Sigil, i've built an inline TOC with color specified as "black" in the stylesheet.
It looks black both in ADE & CoolReader.
When i convert the book to MOBI in Calibre (Do not add TOC option is checked), TOC becomes blue in Mobipocket reader.
I've tried to convert MOBI to MOBI replacing "color="blue" with "color="black" in
S&R, but it still came out blue & 'color' attribute disappeared from the code view.

Is it possible to make it remain black? Or any other color? This may be petty, but i really hate the blue color in a book.

I would be very thankful for any help.

Blue is a default HTML color for links. Mobi is (older)HTML based.
you probably want to add to the body style:
link=black, vlink=black
The first before visiting, the later is has been visited

Sorry, but i didn't quite get it.
Do i add it to the 'body' tag? Or to the head section?
My links are written with 'a' tag:

<p class="calibre2"> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <a class="sgc-1" href="../Text/Section0003.xhtml">Introduction</a></p>

Could you please elaborate?
