asp.net calendar and style sheets

[Torro]

I am making a web application and for part of it i would like to use the calendar provided with asp.net
dropped the calendar in, set up some style sheets for all the properties like day, selected day, weekend etc
started my web app and most of my styles dont show up
most notably, the text color for most of the cells
so i play around and look at the code being produced
it seems as if the day cells produce the following code:
<td class="calOtherMnth" align="Center" style="width:14%;"><a href="javascript:__doPostBack('cal1','1556')" style="color:Black">5</a></td>

as you can tell, it has the class "calOtherMnth" llike i want but then the anchor tag has a color style which overrides the stylesheet. How can i make the anchor tag not have this style?
i cant find any reference to it anywhere
thanks

Umm, delete the style attribute of the anchor tag?

I dont know how to get to the attribute
The anchor tag is rendered by the calendar control

edit: I've since found out that this is a design flaw in the calendar control

the first link is an oop fix, creating a new "unstyled" calendar that is derived from the original calendar
the second is a stylesheet "fix" using !important (which doesnt work for some attributes for me... it works for background-color but not color?)

I've also managed to implement my own 'hack' to style the days within the calendar

***********
public void OnDayRender(Object sender, DayRenderEventArgs e)
{
CalendarDay day = e.Day;
string text = e.Day.DayNumberText;
DateTime now = e.Day.Date;
e.Cell.Style.Clear();

e.Cell.Controls.Clear();

DateTime newMill = new DateTime(2000, 1, 1);
string toAdd = "" + text + "";
e.Cell.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl(toAdd));
}
