Hi Jim,
This is unfortunate, but it's something we have to do in order to
ensure links are at least readable within our widget content areas.
This is particularly problematic in themes with light-text-on-dark
content areas, where a global link color leaking through can become
visually inaccessible. To combat this issue, we have set links within
content panels to be the same color as the text (which is presumed to
be themed with good contrast). Assuming your links are underlined,
this isn't a bad fallback.

However, you can still style the links within your tabs content area
to look however you'd like. Just write some separate CSS that is more
specific than the widget's CSS and you should be fine. For example, a
rule like this:

#mySection .ui-tabs .ui-tabs-panel a {
 color: red;
}

should trump anything the theme says.

Of course, this breaks the ability to entirely re-theme your app
through ThemeRoller, but usually that's okay for a custom application.
If you ever update the theme, you'll just need to manually update the
link color  as well.

Unfortunately, we just don't have any levers in the framework for link
color within content areas. Perhaps that could be considered for a
future version...
