Don't be critical of yourself... I spent some days trying to figure out the same issue when I started using ezpages!

next issue is changing the font color of the links, i've seen other threads on how to do it so i try same thing but no go, i don't think i'm editing the right css file, any ideas?

Do you have FireFox browser? If so, go grab a couple of useful add-ons:-

* Web Developers Toolkit by Chris Pederick
* Firebug
* Colorzilla

These are some of the tools that many of us forum posters use to check out novice users' websites to look for behind-the-scenes stuff that build a page - such as CSS.

You will - for example - be able to see what styles apply to every defined DIV on a webpage, and be able to change the css off-line to see what the result will look like.

wow, those tools worked great. thank you very much

ok the only problem now is that after a link is clicked, it changes to a different color which is fine for the rest of the links but i want my ez page links to always be one color except for when hovering. http://flowsolutions1.com/test

The standard zencart stylesheet often "groups" a number of style ID's and classes, as this is more efficient.

Sometimes, to get one element to display differently from others that "share" a style set, you have to SEPARATE it from the "group" and apply a different set of styles... EG:

THIS:-

a:hover, #navEZPagesTOC ul li a:hover, #navMain ul li a:hover, #navSupp ul li a:hover, #navCatTabs ul li a:hover {
color: #FF0000;
}

BECOMES THIS, if you want to split out #navEZPagesTOC ul li a:hover and give it its own style:-

a:hover, #navMain ul li a:hover, #navSupp ul li a:hover, #navCatTabs ul li a:hover {
color: #FF0000;
}

#navEZPagesTOC ul li a:hover, {
color: #FFCC33;
}

Ok, i've figure out something that seems a lot easier to me, make the ez page, do not make ez page navigation visible and add links to the header that point to the ez page, all my problems solved, i hope.
