Now where did that link go?

September 5, 2007 5:34 AM

What HTML code do I need to add to my Blogger blog template to automatically underline all the links I make in a blog posting? I can get the links to show up in the correct colour, but that colour is quite close to black, so I'd like the text to be highlighted another way, one that is expected when linking. I do not want to change the colours. I'm pretty thick when it comes to HTML, so I'd really appreciate it if you were quite explicit when saying where it has to be. The blog is linked to in my profile, if you need to see the page source.

Go into the CSS at the top of your blog template and change this:

a:link {
  color:#7b00bd;
  text-decoration:none;
}
a:visited {
  color:#999966;
  text-decoration:none;
}

To this:

a:link {
  color:#7b00bd;
  text-decoration:underline;
}
a:visited {
  color:#999966;
  text-decoration:underline;
}

Doh! I've been poking about in the HTML today - how on earth did I miss that? Thanks!
