Cascading Style Sheets: The Definitive Guide

Name

text-decoration — IE4 P/P | IE5 P/P | NN4 Q/Q | Op3 P/-

Synopsis

This property sets certain effects on the text, such as underline and blink. These decorations will “span” child elements that do not have text decoration defined; see Chapter 4 for more details. Combinations of the values are legal.

User agents are not required to support the value blink, and in fact only Netscape Navigator 4.x does so.

Example

U {text-decoration: underline;}
.old {text-decoration: line-through;}
U.old {text-decoration: line-through underline;}

Values

none | [ underline || overline || line-through || blink ]

Default

none

Inherited

no
