link classes for block elements?

is it possible?

[mutedgirl]

I know how to properly assign different link classes to links (ie- <a class="linkclasshere"...blahblahblah) But my question is...is it possible to apply these classes to a div or a span element? I have a list of links on my sidebar that need to be a different color (due to the darker background color in the sidebar) but I don't want to have to add 'class="linkclasshere"' to EVERY link (there are a lot!) Any help? Thanks! :)

Add a class to the DIV containing the links, then create a child selector style like this:

DIV#side A { color: green ; }

That will make any A inside the class "side" DIV green.

Welcome to Webmaster World!

mbauser2 is right, except that

div#side a

applies to links inside a div with the ID

side

. If you use the class name

side

the selector should be

div.side a

insted. :)
