/* the idea here is to create a link with an image AND some text,,,, but ONLY the text gets underlined*/

/* with this setup and CSS it is not possible to take out the underline of the img element (since it is an in-line element)*/

<a href=#><img src="path/to/file" /> some text</a>

/* Because 'a' styling is supposed to have text-decoration:underline; and that affects the image too....

even with:

a img {text-decoration:none;}

*/

so the hack comes here.... CSS this: .imagelink{text-decoration:none}

and in HTML:     <a href=# class="imagelink"><img src="path/to/file" /> <u>some text</u></a>

where we can see how useful the <u> is....
