Hi,

<html>
<body>
<A STYLE="text-decoration:none href=http://www.google.com> This is an example for automatic term mapping</A>

</html>

<A STYLE="text-decoration:none href=http://www.google.com>This is an example for automatic term mapping</A>
</body>
</html>

Any idea??

Regards
Vandhita

Try doing this : <a href="http://www.someplace.com/" style="text-decoration : none; color : #000000;">http://www.someplace.com</a>
or if you want to apply it with all the links in your page.

Go with essential's answer
its better to separate style and content,
the css can be externalised (once) when you have the page design right
for the entire site and reduced file sizes - download times are always a good thing
else every element that has to be styled needs style=" bleep loads of style text margin border padding color background "

Failure is not an option It's included free
If at first you dont succeed, join the club
Of course its always in the last place you look, you dont keep looking after you find it
