Adding CSS to link does not work

Right here's the thing. I'm tired of waiting for the custom HTML tool to come on line so I have been doing a bit of hacking. Please forgive me Pbwiki. :-) In pbwiki 1.0 you were able to put some script/css in the sidebar and it could be applied to all pages. I don't know if it is deliberate but something is stopping me doing that in 2.0. A simple example. Lets say I wanted to put a link to Google in my sidebar but I wanted to position beside the edit button on every page. I would have to do a bit of css wizardry!! I can give the google link a class id = googlelink (Google) and I can upload a css file containing the following styling:

.googlelink {
position:absolute;
left:200px;
top:70px;
}

Then back in my sidebar I can refer to this css file by using the google gadget plugin and hey presto in works.........in the sidebar at least. If I go to my front page, the link appears in the position I designated but then disappears. It seems that the css (or something) on pages other than the sidebar supersedes my styling and the link disappears. I accept this might be difficult to visualise without seeing so if anyone can help then I am happy to allow them access to my wiki.

Yours,
