HTML tag overriding Conditional format

I have a crosstab report.
The measure has a simple conditional format to show r.a.g. depending on how it matches a budget measure.
It all works just fine.

I have added a drill through on the measure, but I don't want it to be underlined, so I have removed the 'hyperlink' class.
This removes the finger pointer though.
So, I added an html tag to put the finger pointer back;
<a style=
"text-decoration:none;
cursor: pointer;
"

(then a closing tag after the data cell obviously)
title='Go to Details'>

My problem is that the HTML tag overrides the white text on my conditional format.
Even if I remove the text-decoration line then it makes the text 'hyperlink blue'.

My work around is to make every cell whiite and make my white cells grey.
It works, it just looks a bit rubbish.

Does anyone have any suggestions about how to fix this?
I just want a pointy finger on mouseover without buggering up my formatting. :)
(I can't get the global classes altered or added to)

I managed to fix it myself.
I applied the conditional formats to the text item within the crosstab cell as well as the crosstab cell.

This seemed to override the html tags.
