In CSS like this:

<style type="text/css">
a:link {color: #FF0000}
a:visited {color: #00FF00}
a:hover {color: #FF00FF}
a:active {color: #0000FF}
</style>
You need to put in the same place as your border style

You can combine the two style declarations (link colors and body border) into one, better still: move your styles to an external stylesheet so you can reuse them on every page of your site; saves bandwidth, speeds up downloading and enables you to change the styles without touching any of the pages.

While you're at it: you can set the background color using styles, too (same advantages as above), and consider using styles for setting fonts as well; that'll save you a whole lot of lengthy "font" tags.
The link MotherNatrsSon mentioned offers a very good CSS tutorial.

Your welcome.

You do know you can change the color by changing the number to any color you want?
