Changing a:link CSS property using Javascript

[matej_ice]

Hi, I'm trying to change the a:link color of an element in a menu. I'm trying to use javascript to change the property, but I do not know the Javascript defiention for the a:link style... ie.

Css: font-size
JavaScript: fontSize

If anyone knows the correct definetion in Javascript, it would be graetly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

What exactly are you trying to do?

Change the rule associated with the selector a:link, or just change the properties of an anchor?

Using DOM2 CSS (in conjunction with IE's proprietary interface), you can modify the style body of a rule in a stylesheet:

//pretend the first stylesheet has the rule
var ss = document.styleSheets[0];
var rules = ss.cssRules || ss.rules;
var length = rules.length;
for (vari i = 0; i < length; i++) {
if (rules[i].selectorText == "a:link") {
rules[i].color = "purple";
}
}

for example.
