Is there something I can put in the HTML code to override the CSS values?
The "C" in "CSS" stands for "Cascading". The whole protocol is designed
to allow this to be done easily.
Use an in-line stylesheet like this:
<html><head>
< ... existing stuff .. >
<style type="text/css" >
a:link {
}
a:visited {
}
a:hover {
}
a:active {
}
</style>
</head>
More stuff....
With CSS' default behaviour, you'll still use the existing external
stylesheet, but you'll overwrite these specific rules with the internal
stylesheet. This obviously only applies to a page which contains this
internal stylesheet.
If you don't want to do this to all links, start using a class attribute
on them. If you want to do it to multiple pages, also consider using
class, with an external stylesheet.
The order of the pseudo-classes :hover etc. is significant.
Go read a good book, like Lie & Bos, on CSS
