HTML double-underlines?
by Well, our html guy got canned, so i have to figure out a lot of the stuff I'd just ask him to do.
I need to double underline some text in HTML, and I'm having trouble, because I don't think its possible. there's no tag that I know of. Does anyone (ahemm.. Ian) know of a way to do this.

Has some cool stuff on CSS, including an interactive tool that lets you try out code and see the results
dude, why do you need double-underlines anyway?
It's part of one of our specs, to notify the user of something. like to get their attention or something. like I said before, usually I wouldn't have to worry about this stuff, but our HTML producer got fired. ughg.
well, anyway, I guess its sort-of interesting. learned a little about CSS.
ok, so my way of doing it (underline + a border) doesn't work when the font-size is small (the two lines become one fat one) so I went with the double-border:
testing
for smaller ones:

this doesn't work for some reason her on ezabel, but if size of border is 5px it makes two thick lines, if its 3px it makes two thin lines.
wow. that was driving me crazy. I don't know anything about CSS
I just figured it out sweet.
<span style="text-decoration: underline; border-bottom: 1px solid
black">underlined
text</span>
underlined
text
You're gonna have to use some stylesheets to do that. experimenting
This is the best I can come up with. Works in IE (looks ugly tho) and Mozilla.
