    Default Underlining not showing in draft, only after clickingpublish!

    I'm using version 3.0 and when I am in draft mode, it does NOT show that text
    is being underlined. Once I click "Publish" it shows text underlined, when
    it's not supposed to be. Now I cannot remove it, and I have no idea how to.

    Please help!

    Are you sure it is not a css matter? Maybe some class that uses the undeline
    property?
    If not, you know which text is underlined. Now select this text and a click
    CTRL+U and publish the page.

    Thanks ThinkInk...I did try that before. I am not sure what CSS stands for, or what to do about that.

    There is a mistake in the source of the page. There is an tag without the
    and some overlapping tags.

    <p class="Link" style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;">
    <a href="calendar2.htm">[U]<a href="events.htm"></a><a
    href="Calendar/calendar.htm">January 2008 Schedule</a>
    </p>

    It should look something like this:

    <p class="Link" style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;"><a
    href="Calendar/calendar.htm">January 2008 Schedule</a>
    </p>

    To change this, you can edit the source code of the page (if you are allowed
    to do this by your administrator or you are the administrator).

    Make it possible:

    1. Edit, Administer websites
    2. Users and Roles, pick the proper role, Edit Role Settings
    3. go to Editing and check 'Allow users to edit source in external application'

    To adjust which application:

    1. Edit, Preferences
    2. File editors
    3. pick Web page Source
    4. adjust the setting as you like with the program you want

    To edit the source code:

    1. in contribute browse to the page
    2. in the menu click File, Actions, Edit Page source in external application
    3. edit the source and safe the code
    4. return to Contribute and Publish the page

    Wow, that's a nice thank you. Glad I could help!

    Forgot to tell you that CSS stand for Cascading Style Sheets. You can create
    these .css files to determine what the html looks like. In the head section of
    the page you posted you can see some styles that also could be included in a
    ..css file and then imported into the html-file.
    Maybe you can google sometime on "CSS" and learn a new dimension to HTML. It's
    really fun and very convenient (since your html code get's much much smaller).

    Thanks, ThinkInk! :)

    I just showed my boss, he's sooo happy also! It was an issue that was driving
    us both insane for weeks upon weeks!

    I did google CSS after you mentioned it...I think I will definitely educate
    myself more on that when I get a chance. Thanks so much again, I really
    appreciate you taking the time out to help me.

    Have a wonderful day!
