is displayed with the appropriate CSS styles.

test the link. See Figure 6-14.

10. Click the footer link to test the e-mail link (a message window opens with the
e-mail addressed to [e-mail]), clo se the message window, close the
browser, and then close the page.
Trouble? If a message window does not open, an e-mail program might not
be installed or configured on your computer. Close any dialog boxes and win-
dows that open, and then continue with Step 11, but do not test the footer in the
other pages.

11. Using the CSS Styles panel, create a new CSS rule with a Compound selector
type named #footer a:link, #footer a:visited and defined in the nbf_styles.css
style sheet, and then click the OK button.
