This feels like a style sheet issue - you have something like a.class1 = #F00 a.class2 = #0F0 and then <a href="file1.html" class="class1">This class of link</a> <a href="file2.html" class="class2">That other class of link</a> Is this what you want? Style sheet designers should note the need for different colors for visited and not-yet-visited links of course.
