Has anyone any idea how I stop chrome from displaying perfectly valid links with a line through them. It looks as if they are broken, but if you click on them, they are fine.
I've tried specifying
text-decoration: none, but it still happens. I don't even use this attribute (line-through) anywhere in the style sheet.

I have worked this out. I'm using the plugin SEO Quake, and these links are no follow. Presumably on "normal" people's pages, the effect won't occur (it goes away when I disable the plugin).
I recommend you add a valid doctype if you dont have one. I didnt see it in your code above. Otherwise you'll discover and face more cross browser problems in the future.

text-decoration: none; does not fix this. Only disabling SEO Quake plugin fixed it.
@teedoff
You only need doctype in html prior to v 5

Are you sure about that? I never heard of it... In any case, it definitely is best to declare a doctype.

lol Is this your own personal opinion or do you have some research to back it up?
The fact is, you dont have to declare a valid doctype to view some web pages, but to expect cross browser compliance and code validation, you have to have one.
Read this: w3c.org and this: htmldog.com
makes no odds to me, as it wasn't my code you were disputing
I had the exact same problem and disabling seo quake fixed it for me as well. I believe tiggsy was correct in thinking that this was just seo quakes way of designating no follow links :)
