How do i use text-underline to remove the underlines? I'm looking through the videos and I'm not sure how this works.

I am stuck on a code challenge for CSS.

Naveen,

The property that you're looking for is actually 'text-decoration', and it has a value of 'underline'. In the first task of this challenge, they want you to remove the underlines from all the links on the page, so you would want to write the following:

/* general selector for all the anchor tags on the page */
a {
    /* set the text-decoration property to have a value of none in order to remove the underline */
    text-decoration: none;
}

I hope this helps to clear things up a bit!
