After a bit of experimentation...I discovered that it was the "visited" =
part of the stylesheet that is affecting my hover problem.  Once a page =
is visited...the hover attribute stops working & it only uses the =
visited attribute.  Is there any way to keep the hover working even on =
visited links???

 Here is the links portion of my stylesheet:

A:link {
 font-size: 14pt;
 font-family: "Tempus Sans ITC", Verdana, Arial, Sans-serif;
 color:#0080FF;
 text-decoration: none;
 }

A:hover {
 font-size: 14pt;
 font-family: "Tempus Sans ITC", Verdana, Arial, Sans-serif;
 color: #0482FF;
 text-decoration: underline;
 }

A:visited {
 font-size: 14pt;
 font-family: "Tempus Sans ITC", Verdana, Arial, Sans-serif;
 color:#66B3FF;
 text-decoration: none;
 }

.newcolor A:link {
 font-size: 10pt;
 font-family: "Tempus Sans ITC", Verdana, Arial, Sans-serif;
 color:#0080FF;
 text-decoration: none;
 }=20
=20
 .newcolor A:hover {
 font-size: 10pt;
 font-family: "Tempus Sans ITC", Verdana, Arial, Sans-serif;
 color: #F0F0F0;
 text-decoration: none;
 }

.newcolor A:visited {
 font-size: 10pt;
 font-family: "Tempus Sans ITC", Verdana, Arial, Sans-serif;
 color:#66B3FF;
 text-decoration: none;
 }

.newcolor p {
  font-size: 10pt;
 font-family: "Tempus Sans ITC", Verdana, Arial, Sans-serif;
 text-align: center;
 }


Thanks much for any & all help you can render in my time of need,

...
I am applying a class to this paragraph...there are no line breaks, just
basic text links with spaces (&nbsp;) between links, but 3 out of 18 of =
them
aren't doing (in my machine) what they are supposed to...They are =
supposed
to change color when hovered over...I am using the hover in my =
stylesheet
rather than mouseover for the color change, & it works in 15 out of 18 =
in
the same paragraph...I can't see any difference between those 3 & the =
other
15, but I may just be too close to it to see what I am doing wrong.  It =
is
probably something very obvious.
