Hello, this is my first post here and I'd like to greet every member of CodingForums.com :thumbsup:

I'm actually working on a clients site and have some problems with links in IE. My clients wants the links to be underlined dotted.

I have added the appropriate a:link, a:visited and a:hover tags in the style but IE doesn't display the dotted lines properly. On some pages they are not displayed at all, see http://goldnuggetinvest.com/index.php and on other pages one link is displayed correct and the other link not. Please see http://goldnuggetinvest.com/forgot.php or http://goldnuggetinvest.com/login.php, here even the link at the bottom is not displayed in the appropriate color.

Any help is very much appreciated!

Thanks Frank,

I have fixed the error in the forgot.php code, but the problem still exists. The IE version is 7. Since I haven't IE6 anymore I don't know if it is displayed correctly there.

Thanks for any further help!

Problem solved!

I noticed that IE7 is displaying the links correctly if a <p> tag is followed the tag with the link. So I have added (empty) p tags, like this: <p></p> following the tags with the links.

I must admit this is an odd solution, but it works. :)
