 * do you mean:
 *     ```
       #main .block.odd a:link { color:#FF0000; }      /* unvisited link */
       #main .block.odd a:visited { color:#00FF00; }  /* visited link */
       #main .block.odd a:hover { color:#FF00FF; }  /* mouse over link */
       #main .block.odd a:active { color:#0000FF; }  /* selected link */
       ```
   
 * or whatever style you want?
    (and the same for .even)

 * That worked thanks but in the wrong spot. Maybe I can explain what I’m trying
   to accomplish. When I post an article and it appears on the front page as “Recent
   Articles” it loses the links from the real page. In other words the links are
   active when I go to the page but they aren’t when then appear under recent articles
   on the first page.
    You can see what I’m taking about at [http://nottoopleased.com](http://nottoopleased.com)
   in the first recent article. It says “with this link” that kink shoud be hot 
   as you’ll see if you hit the continue reading button. I assumed I showed you 
   the right thing. I have listed the code below. Help would be greatly appreciated.
 *     ```
       <!-- main -->
   
       			<div id="main">	
   
       				<h3>Recent Articles</h3>
   
       				<div class="block odd">
   
       					<div class="blk-top">
   
       						<h4><a href="http://nottoopleased.com/?p=3" title="Make a Post or a Comment">Make a Post or a Comment</a></h4>	
   
       						<p><span class="datetime">January 11, 2010</span><a href="http://nottoopleased.com/?p=3#comments" class="comment">No Comments</a></p>
   
       					</div>						
   
       					<div class="blk-content">

       ```

 * the ‘recent posts’ are displayed using ‘the_excerpt()’, which is stripped of 
   all html tags, such as links, images etc.
