Hi,
I have a blog at http://virtualthoughts.org/ and seem to have issues with the Tag cloud. I want to remove the underline and no matter the CSS files I edit to set text-decoration: none, they seem to be there.
I manually inserted the code style="text-decoration: none" for the links under "Articles of Interest"
Any help to remove the underlining of links is greatly appreciated.

.ctc a { text-decoration:none; }If that doesn't work force it..
.ctc a { text-decoration:none!important; }

I still seem to have this problem. Please take a look at the site above on the right hand side you can find the Tag Cloud. Here is my STYLE.CSS
Greatly appreciate the help:

Please don't post huge chunks of code here. For larger blocks of code, use the WordPress pastebin. It makes life easier for everyone.
Try adding:
#sidebar a {text-decoration:none;}
#sidebar a:hover,#sidebar a:active,#sidebar a:focus {text-decoration:underline;}to the bottom of style.css.

Esmi,
Thanks a ton, I was able to resolve the Tag Clou underline issue after adding your suggestions to the style.css. I hadn't known the Pastebin stuff and sorry for posting the huge dump of code here,

I tried this, and had no visible effect.
In order to affect the links, I had to embed "text-decoration:none" in the anchor creation in category-template.php
(from:
$a[] = "<a href='$tag_link' class='tag-link-$tag_id' title='" . esc_attr( $topic_count_text_callback( $count ) ) . "'$rel style='font-size: " .
( $smallest + ( ( $count - $min_count ) * $font_step ) )
. "$unit;'>$tag_name</a>";to:
$a[] = "<a href='$tag_link' class='tag-link-$tag_id' title='" . esc_attr( $topic_count_text_callback( $count ) ) . "'$rel style='text-decoration:none; font-size: " .
( $smallest + ( ( $count - $min_count ) * $font_step ) )
. "$unit;'>$tag_name</a>";Hopefully this doesn't bite me later...
