Hi All,

I have my A tags (links) set to green when they are on the body or table
cells. This works Ok.

I have a background color of orange on my H2 tags, I want to use black for A
tags in this case.

I have tried the following, which doesnt work (Links remain green).

h2 a {
color: #000000;
}

Any idea where I have gone wrong? Have copied my entire CSS for reference,
below.

Many Thanks,

Simon.
