Perhaps I am just not as worldly as others (of of limited brain capacity),
but I am having trouble seeing how the above would differ from this:
html, body{color:#ABCDEF; font-family:Helvetica, Arial, Verdana,
sans-serif;}/*or just body*/
a{color:#FDECAF;}/*even necessary?*/
a:hover{color:#0DECAF;}
I can see where hiliteColor might be handy, but still, why not just define
it where needed? I am very familiar with the server side include concept
as I use ColdFusion frequently, but given the setup requirements for this,
it doesn't seem very universal...
Enlightenment need.
TIA
