Overview Description:
This code snippet shows the problem.
<html><head>
<style>
#logo { text-decoration : none; }
A { text-decoration : underline; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<A HREF="test.htm">
<span id="logo">
test
</span>
</A>
</body></html>
Actual Results:
Text is underlined.
Expected Results:
Text should not be underlined.
Reproducibility:
Always
Build Date & Platform Bug Found: M13 (build: 2000012520), Win2K
Additional Information:
The text-decoration: none on the inner block should override the text-
decoration: underline in the outer block. Other Properties work correctly (font-
size, font-weight, color, etc) and do override the properties of the outer
block.
Another one for you; perhaps markA can take this one from you.

This is not a bug. This is the way CSS specifies text-decoration. The property
is not inherited, but, rather, spans children.

I do believe dbaron is correct. The SPAN tags are not supposed to go in the A
tag. If the id is placed in the A tag, everyting displays correctly. The only
excuse I can think of for my defense is that I fell under the spell of IE's
liberal specification interpretations.
