    Default Can link underline be shown only on mouseover?

    Hi,

    I'm using the latest Xtreme Pro and making html documents with it.

    I know how to turn on/off the 'Underline text links' option in Website Properties.

    I prefer to have my links without the underline when mouse is off the link, but when the mouse goes over the link I would like the underline to appear.

    Is this possible?
    Did John or anyone else make a script for this?

    One way is to put the underline on the MouseOff layer

    Even if you did that - how would people know where the link was?

    Wouldn't they need to hover on every word to check?

    Linked text is normally (and by default) another color. No need for underlines until you hover.
    Yes I suspect Drwyd mean't MouseOver layer too Egg.

    In my case the links are blue and the rest of the text is black. Very conservative.

    Looks like the best option is to open the css and manually write "text-decoration:underline;" to the a:hover. I wish I could figure out a way to make a TWEAK for this and have applied per link basis (if needed).

    Probably this option will be offered in the next big release as a link attribute. Hope so.

    Ahhah - it was this easy.

    Write CSS to the tracker code window; either to Page tracker code or Website.

    Like so:
    <style>
    a:hover {color:#0084D7; text-decoration:underline;}
    </style>
