 * I seem to have the strangest issue going on. The underline text button in the
   editor doesn’t seem to be working. I am not sure if this is an issue with WordPress
   or with the TinyMCE plugin I installed (if it is the latter I also posted this
   in the wrong part of the forum).
 * Does anyone know how to solve this?

 * A link to a published page that demonstrates the problem might help.

 * Martin1,
 * If this issue resides in the admin area please send us a screenshot as this is
   a little confusing.

 * Hi!
 * I have annoying dotted underline under some links: [http://www.peresola.com](http://www.peresola.com)(
   for instance, under follow me on twitter link).
 * I read in a Forum that if I add /* and */ to the line
 * ‘a {
    border-bottom:1px dotted #000; text-decoration:none; color:#000; font-weight:
   600; }’
 * it would work. Indeed it works but then it changes some other things: When I 
   do the following:
 * ‘/*a {
    border-bottom:1px dotted #000; text-decoration:none; color:#000; font-
   weight:600; }*/’
 * the dotted underline remains when I hoover over the mouse on the link: annoying.
 * When I do the following:
 * ‘/*a {
    border-bottom:1px dotted #000;*/ text-decoration:none; color:#000; font-
   weight:600; }’
 * all underline dots disapear but the links to the 3 pages I have, on the top of
   the page, become blue and underlined. And it’s even worst I would say.
 * Any one has an advise on how to get rid of the underlinyng dots that appear on
   the links without making other underlines appear?
 * Thanks!!

 * I think I solved it…
 * I changed the size to 0px and then, I discovered that later on there was a section
   called “hover”, where I also put 0px and background color white: #FFFFFF:
 * ‘a {
    border-bottom:0px dotted #000; text-decoration:none; color:#000; font-weight:
   600; } a:hover { color:#e12000; border-bottom:0px dashed #e12000; background-
   color:#FFFFFF; }’
 * Is that the best way? Thanks!
