Details
Sample code:
<a href="http://ilovethischurch.com"><span style="text-decoration:none">should
not have an underline</span></a>
Mozilla displays the underline, even though the <span> should override it. This
occurs both with inline styling on the span tag, and with an external
stylesheet, no difference.
The following, however:
<a href="http://ilovethischurch.com" style="text-decoration:none">no underline</a>
does correctly suppress the underline.
Cut-n-pastable sample doc showing both follows:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
Test of
<a href="http://ilovethischurch.com"><span style="text-decoration:none">should
have no underline</span></a>
<br><br>
<a href="http://ilovethischurch.com" style="text-decoration:none">should have
no underline</a>
using styles.
</body>
</html>

No, the 'span' shouldn't override the underline. Please see
