How to Color Your Underlines
HTML helps create basic Internet elements, but it has its limitations. If you're using HTML code to create your website, your hyperlink underline colors are shaded blue by default. With a CSS style tag, it's possible to color the underlines for a bolder look. The code takes only seconds to enter and can be used multiple times on the same page for a rainbow of different link colors.
