FrontPage DHTML Effects; Formatting Font Problem

[kgatch3]

Hi,
I recently upgraded to Windows XP Pro w/ SP2 and Microsoft FrontPage 2003. I
run a website and have hyperlinks and I format them using DHTML by using the
mouse-over option then I format the hyperlink to become underlined once
someone browsing my website does a mouse-over.

However, when I began to edit with FrontPage 2003 I noticed the DHTML like
in FrontPage 2002 does not work for underlining. I am including the URL in
this post. The hyperlinks that do change and become underlined are there
because I made them using the older version of FrontPage. I no longer have
the older version due.

Therefore, am I doing anything wrong? The DHTML works when I capitalize, all
small caps, and strike through though. I'm baffled by this.

That is because you added this:
<span style="text-decoration: none">Champions</span>
Since this style is closer to "Champions" it wins so there are no
underline.

Thank you for the help:
I can change the code and get it work. However, I like to do everything
using FrontPage because its just easier:
In FrontPage 2002, this is what I used to do:
Write text, highlight text, hyperlink text, then format the font of the text
from the underline and blue to the necessary color/font. After that, then I'd
do DHTML effects with the mouse-over and format for the text to be underlined
with a mouse-over action.

Now, this process doesn't work in FrontPage 2003. I believe I get that
additional line. However, if I do DHTML to the text and highlight before
adding any hyperlink, the underline goes way outside the text. Any
suggestions as to remedy my situation would help. It looks like I'll just
have to code it. Sigh....
