Hi,
I have a subtheme of the omega html5 starterkit. But now when I want to override for example the <a> tag, I go to /css/global.css in my subtheme and put the style for the a-tag in there.
Then I clear my caches and refresh, and it appears that my a-tag is overridden by omega-text.css.
How can this be, because I would expect my own template to have preference over the base theme's css.
Oh, and more importantly hor can I override the subtheme without putting !important to every style.

Make your selector more specific
I'm not entirely sure this is your issue, but if you are just trying to style the tag using "a", it won't work. You're going to need to use "a:link" instead. That's from memory, so use Firebug to confirm. You will find Omega does this in other instances as well. Just use Firebug to confirm and you will be fine.

You are right, I had to style
You are right, I had to style a, a:visited, a:active, a:link.
While I was under the impression that 'a' would be any 'a' and then you could style a:active for more specific styling.
Well thanks for helping me out :D
My pleasure.
