Can you override a link colour set by a CSS?
I just need to change the color of a link on one of my pages, and want to continue using the CSS.
 
Sure!

Just specify it as a new class, or use the stile attribute. For example:

Code:
...
<style type="text/css">
<!--
a {
  color: red;
  text-decoration: none;
}
a:visited {
  color: red;
  text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover {
  color: red;
}
-->
</style>
...
<a href="page.html">This link is red and has no underline!</a><br><br>
<a href="page2.html" [b]style="color: green;"[/b]>This link is green!</a>

Thus the name: Cascading Style Sheets.
