 * Hey,
 * I’m trying to modify a footer, so when I move the mouse over the links, they 
   change from no-underline to underline. I got this code which works, but I’m having
   problems with it, because it causes the padding to mess up, and muddle up all
   the text.
 * This is the code I am using:
    ` #footer a { color: #999; } a { color:#001760;
   text-decoration:none; } a:hover { color:#001760; text-decoration: underline; }
 * This is the code which I put between the #footer entry which messes up the alignments:
 * `
    clear:both; margin: 0px 416px 0px 16px; padding: 8px 0 16px 0;
 * Any ideas?

 * You need to put this in you css file:
 * #footer a
    { color:#001760; text-decoration:none; } #footer a:hover { color:#
   001760; text-decoration: underline; }
