45,783 PointsTo remove all the underline styles from anchors on the page, you will need to do two things: 1) target the correct element(s), and 2) use the appropriate property and value.
1) The element(s) we want to target are ALL of the anchor elements (i.e. the "links"). To do this, you'll want to use an element selector. The element for anchors ("links") is simply a
, so you would write your selector as follows:
a {
}
2) Anchors receive their default underline via the text-decoration
property, so that is the property that we will want to declare and then edit:
a {
text-decoration: none;
}
The above snippet will target all the anchor elements on your site, and then remove the text-decoration (i.e. the "underline") from them. If you are having trouble with this, go back and rewatch some of the videos in the course that you're on and don't move forward until you grasp the concept. This is of the utmost importance to being able to understand and write CSS, as it is the most basic of things you can do!
Happy coding!
