How to Remove the Underline from a Hyperlink in FrontPage 2003

The default setting for HTML links is to display hyperlinks with an underline. If you don't want to underline hyperlinks in your HTML layout, you can remove the underline using FrontPage 2003. FrontPage is a graphical interface that makes it easy for beginners to create HTML pages. You can then publish your HTML pages using the FrontPage interface. To remove an underline in FrontPage, use the formatting wizard.

Instructions

1. Highlight the link on your web page form in your FrontPage page. With the text highlighted, click the "Underline" button in the Formatting toolbar at the top of your window.

2. Click "Code." This opens the code for your link. The code for a hyperlink begins with the <a> HTML tag. An example of a link is below:

   <a href="mypage.htm">Click here</a>

3. Add the text decoration property to the hyperlink code. Substituting your link for the sample from Step 2, add the property like this:

   <a style="text-decoration:none" href="mypage.htm">Click here</a>

   The style property removes the underline from your text.

4. Click the "OK" button to save the new style changes. Click "Save" to save your changes to the file.
