# Menu Link Style?

 * Hi, I’m trying to set up the style for the menu links in style.css. I know there’s
   a section for Menu and a section for elements like “a” (link). I don’t see a 
   place where menu link style is defined–if it’s there, can you point me to it?
 * Normally I’d add a class to my stylesheet called, for example, “.nav” that would
   include sub-styles for “a:link,” “a:visited,” “a:hover,” and “a:active,” and 
   apply it in the link tag just before the “href.” Would this work? If so, where
   in the style sheet should it live–with the Menu stuff or with the element style
   stuff?
 * Or I could apply it to the <div> in which this menu exists, if I can figure out
   where–there’s already so much stuff in the <div> tag I’m not sure how to set 
   that up (see code below).
 *     ```
       <div class="menu-main-menu-container"><ul id="menu-main-menu" class="menu"><li id="menu-item-53" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-53"><a href="http://beverlybergphd.com">Home</a></li>

       ```
   
 * I’d appreciate any help. Thanks!
