Unordered Lists

Aug 26th, 2009

Is there a way to make links in unordered lists be non-underlined by default? And when the user hovers over the link, it becomes underlined?

Here's the current code:

 Help with Code Tags 
 HTML and CSS Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
<ul>
<li><a href="water">Water</a></li>
<li><a href="wastewater">Wastewater</a></li>
<li><a href="surveying">Surveying</a></li>
<li><a href="aerial">Aerial</a></li>
<li><a href="it">Technology Consulting</a></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><a href="water">Water</a></li>
<li><a href="wastewater">Wastewater</a></li>
<li><a href="surveying">Surveying</a></li>
<li><a href="aerial">Aerial</a></li>
<li><a href="it">Technology Consulting</a></li>
</ul>

On the page with the lists, all of the links are underlined by default and the underline goes away when you hover over it. We want the opposite of this.

It is practically impossible to teach good programming style to students that have had prior exposure to Basic; as potential programmers they are mentally mutilated beyond hope of regeneration.

You can also do a reset and have all ul not be underlined and only create a class for a list you want to underline.

<style>
 
ul li {
text-decoration : none;
}
 
</style>
<style>

ul li {
text-decoration : none;
}

</style>
