removing link underlines

G

Hi All,

I'd like to display some hyperlinked text without underlines. These
links are to internal pages. I can't find a way to do this in
Publisher 2007 (SP2). I tried the obvious highlighting the text and
deselecting Underline, but when published the links are still
underlined. Is someone aware of how to do this?

Thanks.

Here a small script that will remove the underline from "ALL" text links you
do this by placing the script in a very small HTML fragment box at the top of
your page, somewhere convenient:

<STYLE>
<!--
A:link {text-decoration:none}
A:active {text-decoration:none}
A:visited {text-decoration:none}
-->
</STYLE>

You can also add options specifying the color you want the text to change to
on mouseover, i.e:

Add below A:visited
A:hover {color:#inhexadecimal}

A further option would be to have the underline appear only on mouseover:
A:hover {color:#inhexadecimal ; text-decoration:underline}

or highlight the text:
A:hover {color:#inhexadecimal ; background:#inhexadecimal}

Geoffrey,

Thank you kindly. That's terrific. Interestingly, for simply
deselecting Underline I further find the underlines show in FF 3.5.3,
but do not show in IE7.

Another method

Create a hot spot around the text
Being careful if the text moves do to editing you must move the hot spot

Yes Brett, that's right.

Firefox will ignore deselecting underline in your display setting, but the
script will work.

Firefox . . . the troublemaker, always Firefox . . . ahrrgg#$@%!%$#@%&+!!!
