Oh. Yeah. {{hint:fields}} are being treated as anchor elements. So you would need to come up with more selectors.
It would have to look like this on the HTML Page:
<div id="hint1">
{{hint:Spanish}}
</div>
<div id="hint2">
{{hint:English}}
</div>
and like this on the styling page:
div#hint1 a.hint
{
color: purple;
}
div#hint2 a.hint
{
color: green;
}
Remember: This will only color the hint field, as soon as you click on it. The color switches back to black.
BUT: You can make this change too with:
#hint1
{
color: purple;
}
#hint2
{
color: green;
}
