So I pretty much always have problems when making web pages. I define basic link color and function in a body.css, but then when I have somthing like a footer link and I want it a differeent color I will give it a class with new link properties. The problem is that just messes up the body links and vice versa. What am I doing wrong?

Examples of exactly what you have done, how ever, i would suggest a different kind of selector.
i.e.
i.e.
a {
/* blah */
}
a:hover { /* blah */ }
#footer a {
/* different blah */
}
<body>
<a href="#">foo</a>
<div id="footer">
<a href="#">Differen't looking foo</a>
</div>
</body>
Something like that would change anything "a" inside of the #footer element to whatever you choose.

Ya, linking to a style sheet (the attached way) is what you should be doing if you are going to be using it in more than one page, or if you just like to see your css on a different page.
If you do not wish to create a div just so to style a few links at the bottom you can also use a span, or inline style.
