# Link-background
The `link-background` sets the background color of the link.
!!! note
`link-background` only applies to Textual action links as described in the [actions guide](../../guide/actions.md#links) and not to regular hyperlinks.
## Syntax
```sass
link-background: <COLOR> <PERCENTAGE>;
```
--8<-- "docs/snippets/type_syntax/color.md"
--8<-- "docs/snippets/type_syntax/percentage.md"
## Example
The example below shows some links with their background color changed.
It also shows that `link-background` does not affect hyperlinks.
=== "Output"
```{.textual path="docs/examples/styles/link_background.py" lines=6}
```
=== "link_background.py"
```py hl_lines="8-9 12-13 16-17 20-21"
--8<-- "docs/examples/styles/link_background.py"
```
1. This label has an hyperlink so it won't be affected by the `link-background` rule.
2. This label has an "action link" that can be styled with `link-background`.
3. This label has an "action link" that can be styled with `link-background`.
4. This label has an "action link" that can be styled with `link-background`.
=== "link_background.css"
```css hl_lines="2 6 10"
--8<-- "docs/examples/styles/link_background.css"
```
1. This will only affect one of the labels because action links are the only links that this rule affects.
## CSS
```css
link-background: red 70%;
link-background: $accent;
```
## Python
```py
widget.styles.link_background = "red 70%"
widget.styles.link_background = "$accent"
# You can also use a `Color` object directly:
widget.styles.link_background = Color(100, 30, 173)
```
