strange underline in explorer

I just updated the colors on my styles for my site, louisianaoutdoors.com. In firefox the colors look fine but in IE (a late version of 6) almost all the text that is not a link has a blue line under it. Not sure why...

Weird.

I don't notice anything strange in your stylesheet. And it's weird that I cannot even highlight any of the text on that page.

Since it's not working anyway (apparently, at least in my IE6), what happens if you remove all that SCROLLBAR stuff?

Also, get rid of this extraneous link in your header HTML - it's laying outside of the table tags:

Quote:

<td width="50%" valign="top" align="left" bgcolor="#8E7E71"><a href="http://www.louisianaoutdoors.com/forums/ubbthreads.php"><img border="0" src="http://www.louisianaoutdoors.com/forums/logos/ladoorsmall.jpg" width="280" height="70"></a></td>
<a href="http://www.louisianaoutdoors.com">
<td width="50%" valign="middle" align="right" bgcolor="#8E7E71">

<p align="center">
<SCRIPT type="text/javascript" SRC="blahblah">
</SCRIPT>
<NOSCRIPT>
</a>
blahblah
</NOSCRIPT>
</p>
</td>

And if it's still doing it after those two changes, try removing the AdPeeps code and see if that's the culprit.

Yeh I'm thinking it's a loose tag myself, either an unclosed url, or he's set a bookmark and closed it with / instead of /a (which I've seen on my faq script i meddle with).

I think running it through a html validator will yeald some results (tidy, or the one through w3c).

Well the file as linked does not appear to be there anymore to test.

You could be right since that </a> is enclosed in the NOSCRIPT section, thereby rendering it basically non-existent.
