Redefine <a>

[shapper]

Hello,

Is it possible to define the color of an a tag when it is disabled?
<a disabled="disabled" class="PageNavigation">
&lt;
</a>

Thanks,
Miguel

The A tag doesn't have a "disabled" attribute.

OP should look up disabled (html) or diabled="disabled" (xhtml)
for inputs and a few other things... make some experiments and
see the effect of disabling text, e.g, in text boxes in different
browsers. You can style the text in the proper contexts.

Wrong approach. You can't just make things up as you go, inventing
attributes and whatever. Use whatever authoring tools you are using to
create pages so that a page does not contain a link that is not supposed
to be a link.

As others have mentioned, there's no 'disabled' attribute for a.

However, more general: in CSS3 there are attribute selectors
(<http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-selectors/#attribute-selectors>). Not that
widely supported though, so you can't rely on it yet. Just something to
remember for the future.
