I have sorting enabled on a gridview which changes the header text to a
hyperlink.  I need to specify the hyperlink style (color specifically).  I
can't globally set the hyperlink style at the page level due to differing
requirements throughout the page.  I can't figure out how to change this when
I enable sorting.  Any help?  Thanks!

The CSS2 specification allows a syntax for descendants and child selectors
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/selector.html#descendant-selectors

So if one adds a HeaderStyle in the GridView markup:
<HeaderStyle cssClass=”GridViewHeader”/>
Then one can format the links in the header using the descendants selectors
like this:
<style>
..GridViewHeader a:link{/* style definition */}
..GridViewHeader a:hover{/*style definition */}
..GridViewHeader a:visited {/*style definition */}
</style>
