Text becoming underlined after creating a hyperlink 1

[Enkrypted]

I came across a problem while doing some work on our company website. My boss wanted the image on the top of the page to link to a page on our site. I was able to do that however by creating the link, it appears to make all text on the screen become underlined. I am not sure why this is doing this as I have never had this issue before.

You can see what I mean by going to Sharper Impressions Painting

Here is the section where I added the link to:

<div style="position:absolute;top:0px;left:0px;width:864px;height:200px;"><a href="

http://www.sharperimpressionspainting.com/contactus.html">

<img src="images/top_fade.jpg" alt="" height="200" width="864" border="0" /></div>

I have also tried to make it as:

<div style="position:absolute;top:0px;left:0px;width:864px;height:200px;"><a href="contactus.html"> <img src="images/top_fade.jpg" alt="" height="200" width="864" border="0" /></div>

It does not seem to help at all. With the a href in there it adds the underlining. If I remove the link, the underlining removes. Any ideas?

Basically you didn't close the link.

For better adherence to web standards, you could also give a CSS class or in-tag styling with the style attribute to the link with border:0px.

'border="0"' has been deprecated since HTML 4.01 and is not supported in XHTML Strict.
