Links underlined and not underlined?

[davidrosso]

Why is it that on some pages I design the text links are UNDERLINED and on other pages I make they are not??

I'm assuming its a different setting somewhere in the different templates I used to make each page??

The two sites in my signature are an example of pages with the links NOT underlined (which is the way I like it) and this site here...
http://akhs1986.djrwebdesign.com/ is an example of one where the links are underlined.

If you insert "plain text" you can have links without underlines. You can also have links without underlines using "Rich text" as long as you don't select a portion of the wording. However, if you want links without underlines throughout, whether you've selected portions of wording or not, go under the "tools" menu and choose "styles".

In the upper left drop-down menu, choose "document".

Then, on the right, choose "Links".

The code to remove underlines is:

Custom CSS: text-decoration :none;

under styles then documents I don't have links. I can add links is that what you mean?

In the styles box, click the "edit" button in the top right corner. In the next box, click "modify". You can choose the "add links" option, then on the left hand side, begin selecting the link styles.You can set the styles and colors of the hover, active, and visited links.

I would recommend creating a separate 2-page document, create some links, and practice with it first so you get comfortable with it.

I made a new document and I see links as you describe, but in my main web site there are no links in the page style. is this because it was originally made in ver 4? I now have ver 7.

I hope I understand what you're asking. It won't display a literal link on your site, it just changes the global style of all the links.

This won't show any actual links. What it does is change the style. For example, if you choose <A hover>, it will change all the links in your document to what you set it to.

You can also import a site too.

I have links on my site but they are all underlined and I wish they weren't. but when I go the page style menu under documents I only have normal there isn't a link catagory. under global style I have some heading styles but again no link style.

Okay, all you have to do is click the "add links" button. After you do that, in the scroll area to the left are link types. Click on "modify" then double-click in each field that you want to edit.

Second from the bottom in the "modify" menu is a field that says: Custom CSS.

Make sure it is set to: text-decoration: none; It's actually quite easy.

Thanks it worked!

Is there a way I can make my text links with no underline (which I know... the answer is provided here) BUT, have them show an underline when the cursor moves over the links? Then if the cursor moves away the underline vanishes again?

If this is not a good example... chack out the links at the bottom of this Jaguar USA page:

That's the effect Im going for. Any ideas?

I can answer that one.
In the same text style area there is a <A:hover>
set custom css to text-decoration :underline;

Any body have what the syntax would be to do other things like blink or anything
