If a whole section of the page needs a certain look you could use < div class="section1"> and then have an a style for that section.
eg

 Ideas {bgcolor: yellow}
 Ideas a {text-decoration: none; visited: orange; active: blue;hover: black;}

everything within the div will have the ideas style. Check my syntax but the idea is sound.
