I have changed the color for my hyperlink to red. In "Normal View" the change is apparant. However, in both preview and preview in browser (using Internet Explorer) the red appears to be a very slightly greyed out text. This is true for any other color I choose to change the hyperlink to. Help? Is it a flaw in the program or just the way my browser in installed?

How did you change the color to red? For example:
o By selecting the link text and then choosing a color
on the Formatting tool bar?
o In Page Properties / Formatting?
o By assigning a CSS style to "a"?
o By assigning a CSS class?

The last three are generally trouble-free.

If you have previously clicked a link it
will appear as brownish red when previewed.
This is a function of Internet Explorer History,
as it "remembers" where you have been.
You need to clear your temporary internet
and history files so that the links will appear
as having "never been clicked".
