I have this:

a.link { text-decoration: none; color: black; }
a.visited { text-decoration: none; color: black; }
a.active { text-decoration: none; color: black; }
a.hover { text-decoration: underline; color: gray; }

in my stylesheet, but it isn't affecting the page.
It's gotta be something to do with this code, because everything else from my stylesheet is working on the page.
Is there something wrong with this code that I'm overlooking?

unless the class is hover or link or visited etc, it needs to have colons.

a:link
a:visited
a:active
a:hover

They also must be in a SPECIFIC order:

a:link
a:visited
a:hover
a:active
