How to use Text Decoration

The text-decoration property sets the type of text decoration used for the text. This adds an underline to all text inside the <p> element. Possible values for text-decoration include overline, line-throughunderline and underline overline. Text decoration is a modern version or shorthand for text-decoration-line, text-decoration-color, text-decoration-style, and the newer text-decoration-thickness property.

CSS

  .underline {
    text-decoration: underline;
  }
  .dotted-underline {
    text-decoration: underline dotted;
  }
  .yellow-dotted-underline {
    text-decoration: underline dotted yellow;
  }
  .grey-wavy-underline {
    text-decoration: grey wavy underline;
  }
  .blue-overline-underline {
    text-decoration: underline overline #006699;
  }
