Re: [WSG] Why does IE show text decoration on these buttons?
Mike, In your CSS all I see are general rules set with text- decoration: underline. I don't see the text-decoration: none anywhere. I would make your rules more specific.

Re: [WSG] Why does IE show text decoration on these buttons?
Hi Mike Heres you CSS from a Mac they both show text-decoration:underline; a:link, a:visited { color:#2E438C; text-decoration:underline; } a:hover, a:active { background:none repeat scroll 0 0 #00; color:#FF; text-decoration:underline; } You can change a:hover text dec to be none or you could make it go away by giving your a href= class=noDecolink/a and css .noDeco{text-decoration:none;} to test it Good Luck Craig w...@afpwebworks.com wrote: Hello group, It's another brain fade moment for me, so I hope someone can help me.

RE: [WSG] Why does IE show text decoration on these buttons?
Thanks a lot for everyone who has shown interest in my little issue. The problem is around the menubar at the top of this site. They're in a table cell that's specified as follows: td colspan=3 id=menubar align=center They are images with no rollover activity required.The IE style sheet, called uniquecelebrations_iehacks.css has the following: #menubar a:link, #menubar a:visited { text-decoration: none; } #menubar a:hover, #menubar a:active { text-decoration: none; border: none; font-weight: normal; } I have checked that these rules do indeed select the button images in question by putting a ridiculously large border in the hover/active rule, and I have seen the border appear and disappear when the mouse rolls over them. So I know these rules select what I want them to. What I don't understand is why these rules don't override the text-decoration: underline which is required elsewhere in the site. There's a screenshot of what I'm talking about at http://uniquecelebrations.com.au/screenshot.jpg. In my system this problem doesn't appear in Chrome or Firefox but does appear in IE7. http://uniquecelebrations.com.au/ Cheers Mike Kear Windsor, NSW, Australia 0414 622 847 Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion Developer AFP Webworks Pty Ltd http://afpwebworks.com Full Scale ColdFusion 9 hosting from A$15/month -Original Message- From: li...@webstandardsgroup.org [mailto:li...@webstandardsgroup.org] On Behalf Of Harish Chouhan Sent: Monday, 3 May 2010 3:52 PM To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Subject: RE: [WSG] Why does IE show text decoration on these buttons? Hello Mike, I checked your website in FireFox, IE8, IE7 IE6, it behaves same everywhere. A screenshot of the issue you are saying would help. Also trying adding a !important next to the text decoration rule in the CSS for IE7.

Hi Mike Try being more specific ie td#menubar a;link{} as it is part of a table as used in main css Cheers Mike Kear wrote: Thanks a lot for everyone who has shown interest in my little issue.

The solution (was: [WSG] Why does IE show text decoration on these buttons?)
Ei Sabai Nyo, thank you, you win the prize! By golly it works. When I saw your suggestion, I thought to myself 'that wont work what's background got to do with it?' but I tried it anyway, and the issue has been fixed. So now I have to ask why does it work? What made you say that? Background was waay down on my list of things to check out.
