Underlined Text

Postby jimh » Tue Mar 15, 2016 2:10 pm

Please avoid using the mark-up function for underlining text in order to give emphasis. In HTML the use of underlined text is understood to mean a hyperlink exists. Using underlining for emphasis is inappropriate. Generally when I find postings with long passages of underlined text, I remove the underlying in order to prevent confusing the reader into thinking the underlined text may be a hyperlink.
