Here is the answer to save everybody else some time. Just add style="text-decoration:none" to your link code. ie. <a href="./" target="_blank" style="text-decoration:none">Link</a> This won't affect any hover coding either. This works in IE & NS. I recommend only removing underlines for sections that are clearly navigational areas. Hope that helps. Jason P.S. An easier way to remove links underlines is to have something short and and sweet to place between the <head></head> tags. <style type="text/css"> <!-- a{text-decoration: none;} a:hover {color: #ff0000; text-decoration: underline;} --> </style> If you use this code, you can still make a few links have underlines by putting this with their link code: style="text-decoration:underline" to your link code. ie. <a href="./" target="_blank" style="text-decoration:underline">Link</a>
