[ic] Change text color in category listing

I have been searching and trying all kinds of things to try to figure this
out. I am trying to change the font color of the listing of categories on
the leftside of the construct demo. I found the loop that produces the list
and put a <font color="#000000"> in front of the loop. Nothing. It appears
that when bar_link is called to build the link that it is setting the color
with its own font tag. I looked in bar_link and found nothing there to help.
Here is the code from /templates/regions/LEFTRIGHT_TOP (which is called for
the particular page that I am working with):
                      <tr>
                        <td width="119" valign="top" bgcolor="#660099">
						<p><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="1"
color="#000000">
[set found_cat][/set]
[loop prefix=cat
	search="
		fi=cat
		st=db
		tf=sort
		tf=name
		rf=code,name
		sf=sel
		se=[box-code]
	"
	]
[cat-exec bar_link]cat[/cat-exec]<BR>
[/loop]
                            <br>
                            </font></p>
                        </td>
                      </tr>

>From what I see, the font should be black (#000000), but it still shows up
white. I tried changing the color with the body tag (<body
link=#000000...>). Still nothing. Here is the source of the page with one of
the links:

<A
HREF="http://chad.its-is.uni.edu/cgi-bin/chclassics/scan/fi=products/sp=swap
_results/st=db/co=yes/sf=category/se=Gift%20Certificate/va=link_image%3d/va=
link_banner%3d.html?mv_pc=235" CLASS="barlink"><FONT COLOR="#FFFFFF">Gift
Certificate</FONT></A><BR>

Where is the <FONT COLOR="#FFFFFF"> coming from? I can't figure that out. I
don't see it in bar_link, I don't see it in the actual code of
LEFTRIGHT_TOP. I don't know where it is coming from?

I am running IC 4.6 with the default database on RH 7.1.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Chad
