Blue Link Color -- can't figure out how to change

http://www.diamondbackengines.com/estore

(only just started -- so don't laugh!)

I can figure out how to change every color except for the blue non-hover non-visited links you see when you go to the above link.

I've stared at this for hours and hours -- and just don't see it. Before I screw things up past the point of everything getting lost in the sauce -- can someone please roll me a bone with a specific and detailed suggestion -- instead of "There's already threads about this" or that I need to modify my CSS stylesheet?

I'm not an expert with stylesheets -- but not a complete novice. I'm sure it is something very simple and very stupid on my part -- but I've stared at it for so long that I'm blind to it and won't see it until someone gives me a detailed explaination on the original code to search for -- and the code to replace it with.

Thanx

Re: Blue Link Color -- can't figure out how to change

The color I want to change the blue to is FF3545

When I view the source -- I see that I have three CCS sheets in my /includes/templates/diamondback/css folder -- and I assume that the second one would override the same items that may be contained in the frist one listed -- and the third css listed would override the same items previously defined in 1 and 2. Is that true?

If someone does spot where I'm screwing up -- please let me know which style sheet needs the modification. I'm sure I have at least one css too many -- but right now everything works just the way I want -- except for the blue link. When I remove original or new css -- then many of the colors go Helter Skelter again -- so while I might have one too many, I'm think it would be easier just to identify the only color that I haven't fixed -- and be done with it.

Re: Blue Link Color -- can't figure out how to change

I fixed the blue links, and then I decided to lighten the color from 8C000B to 92000D -- and so I did a find and replace in my CSS files.

All of the colors that I wanted changed -- did change -- except the header, footer, and category color on the side boxes. They stayed 8C000B.

I used the developer's tool kit and can[t find an instance of 8C000B. I also searched all files in my zencart directory for 8C000B embedded -- can came up blank.

I assume there must be a typo causing this. What is the deal that controls the color for the footer, header, and category strip in the sideboxes?
