Non-Underline link?

[quotealex]

How you make a link text without the unerline showing?

Thanks.

[richard]

same Q posted on PC.

<style type="text/css">
<!--
a { text-decoration: none}
-->
</style>

[richard]

or, if you want just a couple of links to be like this, and most of the links to be normal and underlined:

(in head tag)

<style type="text/css">
<!--
.link { text-decoration: none}
-->
</style>

Then use:

<a href="foo.html" class="link"> a link </a>

Thanks Richard. I'll try it.

[richard]

no need to try it, it works http://bbs.adultwebmasterinfo.com/ubb/tongue.gif atleast in IE.

I dont think it's a good idea to remove
the underlines on links - newbies are told
that underlined text can be clicked.

Removing underlined texts is good when you want to link all your sites and pages but don't want to many surfers cliking on them. Basically, I'm using it so SE spiders can crawl all my sites and pages.

You can do that like this:


&lt;a href="http://www.whatever.com"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;


Just dont put anything as the link text.

Works fine...

Richard,

Got a CSS question. If I want to use an external style sheet on multiple domains could that work? Instead of the path being like test.css would it be http://www.mydomain.com/text.css ??

Kinda just learning css.

[richard]

yep Ride, you can do that.

&lt;style type="text/css"&gt;
&lt;!--
@import "http://www.qbabes.com/general.css";
--&gt;
&lt;/style&gt;

OR

&lt;link rel="stylesheet" href="http://www.qbabes.com/general.css"&gt;

Then use the styles like normal, ie
&lt;p class=infobold&gt;Some InfoBold Text&lt;/p&gt;

[richard]

In this case, amoungst other classes, general.css contains:

.infobold { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold; color: #66FFFF}

If you have multiple pages using the same styles, you also get a couple of advantages by using an external stylesheet...

1) You can make site-wide changes by changing a single style sheet.

2) Once the stylesheet is loaded (and cached) from the first page, additional pages don't have to load it again (or load a longer page with an embedded stylesheet). A small savings, but 1k of text x 100,000 impressesions is a gig...

why is it 1k?

Just wondering if this works in both IE and Netscape? Sorry, too lazy to try it myself. http://bbs.adultwebmasterinfo.com/ubb/wink.gif
