DNN 4.5.5

I want to make all Text/HTML hyperlinks appear by default as 'underline' (the default hover state) even when there is no mouse over.

I update the following selector in this way (Admin > Host Settings > Stylesheet Editor):

A:link  {
    text-decoration:    underline;
    color:  #003366;
}

After I 'Save Style Sheet' and 'Refresh', only some of the Text/HTML hyperlinks appear with the underline; others do not.

In one Text/HTML module instance with a simple horizontal list of hyperlinks with 4 items, 2 links appear with underline, 2 do not.

In a User Defined Table instance with many records, most of the column type URL hyperlinks appear with underline, but some do not.

Has anyone seen this behavior? Am I NOT setting the A:link selector correctly?

If it can't be solved, worrying will do no good.

Brett,

look into default.css, module.css, skin.css, portal.css, ... if there are other settings for more dedicated situations, e.g. a.myclass:link { ... } overriding your global setting

I thought Admin > Site Settings > Stylesheet Editor (portal.css) would be the right place to override default.css, module.css, skin.css, etc. But is it the other way around? I'll hunt down the CSS line and see what I find, Sebastian - thank you.

I just discovered one thing: I need to override all four hyperlink classes/selectors in Stylesheet Editor, THEN all hyperlinks appear as underlined. The state of some hyperlinks was setting text-decoration: none;

A:link  {
    text-decoration:    underline;
    color:  #003366;
}

A:visited   {
    text-decoration:    underline;
    color:  #003366;
}

A:hover {
    text-decoration:    underline;
    color:  #ff0000;
}

A:active    {
    text-decoration:    underline;
    color:  #003366;
}

I goggled 'dotnetnuke module.css' which landed me on this post, which seems to be a good overview of DNN 4.5.x CSS, and those CSS files Sebastian mentioned earlier in his post:

Inventua makes good 3rd party modules, and a couple I use personally (Inventua PayPal and Inventua SQL Scheduler).

Related more specifically to the User Defined Table Module, here is a good introductory CSS post:
