Re: [css-d] to underline or not to underline, that is the question

Sent by aardvark on 15 July 2002 10:10


my own user testing, targetted at sites where the users actually 
make up a similar cross-section of the populace (government sites, 
medical sites, etc.), i've found that removing underlines slows users 
down and results in more mouse-scanning as opposed to visual 
scanning...

it has the same net effect as "click here" -- it slows users down 
and impedes comprehension of links...
