Colored Link Underlines -- What did I do?

Freeway
1

I did something by accident that I’d like to re-create and now do on purpose, but I have no idea what I did! Here’s the page:

http://www.roxannerenee.com/map.html

The links at the top of the page have a different color underline than the text. When I roll over them, it’s yet another different color. I’d like for the active link to have an orange underline, but no idea how to do that either! (It seems like I should just have to reverse the color, but when I change the active link pref it doesn’t change anything). At the bottom of the page, the “terms of service” link is another similar annomoly. I was messing with the styles in my freeway document, but somehow I broke it and it’s not doing it anymore. In the meantime, I’m not overwriting the published page in hopes that I can figure out what I did.

Anyone really smart out there that can help me turn my accident into something cool?

Thanks!
Doty

This link didn’t work so I couldn’t see the page, but I’d guess that
you’ve used the ‘Text Link Style’ action, which allows you apply
different link styles to any DIV or box or text on the page.

Well, I re-did a few things and now things are working closer to the way I want them, but not consistently.

http://www.roxannerenee.com (links at top are the way I want them–almost)

http://www.roxannerenee.com/presenters.html (links on the page are the way I want, but the ones at the top need to look like the home page).

These are all pulling from the same master.

Thanks for taking a look!

Hi Paul,

I didn’t apply that action that I know of! If you go to the main page
http://www.roxannerenee.com you’ll see that some of them are working
properly and some are not. I can’t tell the difference as to why.

Maybe I should check out that action!

Thanks,
Doty

Couldn’t you just apply a border-bottom: 1px style to the a:hover class and then you’d achieve the same affect. I don’t know if you’d have to set text-decoration to none to make sure it didn’t affect the border.

Just an idea.

Thanks. However I did it it was really easy. For those links, I just created
an html box, typed words in html format and applied the links. I’d love to
know how I created this with seemingly such little effort.

If it makes a difference to anyone, I was able to re-create it. So, I do
have a freeway file that has the effect in it. I’m just not smart enough to
know what to do with it!
