Uncle Bat's Tips
Before you start writing a CSS file, remember to reset your page with CSS using this code:
* { margin: 0; padding: 0; box-sizing: border-box;}
a { text-decoration: underline; /* apply underline to links */ text-decoration-thickness: 1px; /* make the underline thicker */ text-underline-offset: 3px; /* shift the underline downward */}
a:after { content: " ↗";}Explanation
Section titled “Explanation”The body applies the code to the entire page.
To avoid any default offset on your page, reset the margin and padding by setting them to 0.
The text-decoration property allows you to remove the default underline that distinguishes a link within text.
