Karen,

As I mentioned in my previous email, you have to have the sequence for the
a: classes in a certain order or they fail to work properly.

Your code:
<!--
    a:link {  font-weight: bold; color: #FFFF00; text-decoration: none}
    a:hover {  font-weight: bold; color: #FF0000; text-decoration: none}
    a:visited {  font-weight: bold; color: #FFFF99; text-decoration: none}
    a:active {  font-weight: bold; color: #FFFF33; text-decoration: none}
-->

The sequence you need:
    a:active {definition}
    a:link {definition}
    a:visited {definition}
    a:hover {definition}

Put your a: classes in this order, and all should work for you.

Good luck,
Kehvan
