.under { text-decoration: underline red; } .over { text-decoration: wavy overline lime; } .line { text-decoration: line-through; } .plain { text-decoration: none; } .underover { text-decoration: dashed underline overline; } .thick { text-decoration: solid underline purple 4px; } .blink { text-decoration: blink; }
<p class="under">This text has a line underneath it.</p> <p class="over">This text has a line over it.</p> <p class="line">This text has a line going through it.</p> <p>This <a class="plain" href="#">link will not be underlined</a>, as links generally are by default. Be careful when removing the text decoration on anchors since users often depend on the underline to denote hyperlinks.</p> <p class="underover">This text has lines above <em>and</em> below it.</p> <p class="thick">This text has a really thick purple underline in supporting browsers.</p> <p class="blink">This text might blink for you, depending on the browser you use.</p>
