Hi All,  
I have been following kirupa’s great tutorials but I am just stumped at why I am unable to get my CSS to work with my links. I want to have a background on my links you know like a colored background on rollover (hover). My links are underlined but it ignores some of my CSS like the background on the hover link. Any suggestions?

However, here is what i want it to do.

1.) On rollover (hover) of a link it has a background color and it is underlined. The underline works just not the light background color.

2.) I want my headers to be bold.
