So I have these old school image swaps set up on a page and for style purposes I wanted a black border. Dreamweaver wanted to use a blue border instead but I wasn't having it. Here is what you can do: a:link img{ border-color: #000000 } a:vlink img{ border-color: #000000 } a:alink img{ border-color: #000000 } (This is half a note-to-self) in case it crops up in the future and half an FYI in case anyone else randomly Googles this problem like I did).
