<underline>

Underline

Definition

Used to mark text that should appear with a horizontal line beneath it for display or print

Remarks

This is normally a print consideration — not a matter for XML tagging — as underlining is frequently prohibited in online works, since it is a common “this is a link” signal.

Attribute

underline-style Appearance of the Underline

Related Elements

The Underline element is used for ordinary underlining. For underlining that involves problems with element overlap, use the milestone elements Underline Start and Underline End to mark the start and end of the sequence to be underlined.
