Zachary -
another way to do it if you just want to edit your html file, is to give
your body an ID like <body id="different"> in your external stylesheet.
only use that id for declaring styles that you want to be able to
disable later. IE:
#different h1{
color: #CC0000;
font-weight: normal;
font-size: 120%;
}
#different a {
color: #996600;
text-decoration: none;
}
Then when you want these styles to revert to default, simply remove
id="different" from the body tag. As long as you have not declared any
of these elements broadly like this anywhere else in your CSS, they
should now be default.
This method only requires that you change one tag in the html rather
than pasting styles, etc. all over the place.
Good luck.
