Basic Hyperlink Query

[KiwiBrian]

I have a php series of scripts/programs/files which provide a simple
calendar/scheduler program.
When either an email or web address/hyperlink are displayed within the
output, they seem to have the browser default link colours and underline.
Altho the output table/content is within a div in the web page, I seem to be
unable to apply CSS styles to the div contents in this case.
I have even tried !important to no avail.
There does not seem to be any HTML tags in the PHP controlling them.
Is it possible for anyone to help me to apply CSS styles to these links
without you being able see the PHP etc?
Ignore this if I am asking for the impossible/impractical.
TIA

All we would need is the HTML. CSS is separate from PHP, being
applied by the browser. URL?

The hyperlinks are entered with client interaction with the PHP in entering
entries into the calender.

The two required access entries, name and password are both test

I see your 'text-decoration: none !important' in an inline style, so
I'm supposing that that's what you've tried.

You have to apply the styles to the As rather than the DIVs. There
are various ways. For example, assign a class to every link (e.g., <a
class="..." href="...">), or use some contextual selector, or just the
type selector A,

A:hover {text-decoration: none;}

If you're still having no luck, I suggest looking at the browser to
see if it's overriding author stylesheets with !important user
stylesheets.
