Remove line under image in link

Question

I have a few instances where I place image within a link. Normally if you set border=\"0\" there line under a link does not apply to the image. However, I had to specify DOC

Answer 1

In case anyone cares, here's an alternative solution that I came up with to circumvent the issue:

.nl {
    text-decoration:none;
}

<a href="link.php" class="nl"><img src="img.png" height="16" width="16" border="0"><u>link</u></a>

Answer 2

Solved

<a href="link.php" style="text-decoration: none"><img src="img.png" height="16" width="16" border="0"> link</a> 

Answer 3

If you are linking to an image, try the following:

a[href$=jpg], a[href$=png] {
    text-decoration: none;
}

Answer 4

a { text-decoration: none }

The underline is from the A-tag not the IMG

Answer 5

For those cases where editing the markup isn't an option (inaccessibility to templates and/or surrounding issues), you can use a little jQuery. You may need to adjust the syntax to override your CSS:

jQuery('a > img').parent().css({'text-decoration' : 'none'});

Answer 6

If you want to have a special case for links with images, give the a element a class and remove the text-decoration for that class:

HTML:

<a href="link.php" class="image-link"><img height="16" width="16" /></a>

CSS:

a img
{
  border: 0 none;
}
.image-link
{
  text-decoration: none;
}

This is great if you only have an image within the link, however you have both text and images within the anchor.

The solution for that would be to add a span around the text within the anchor:

<a href="link.php" class="image-link"><img height="16" width="16" /> <span>link text here</span></a>

and add an additional style in the stylesheet:

.image-link span
{
  text-decoration: underline;
}
