Final answer:

To remove the link underline in CSS, use the 'text-decoration: none;' property on the anchor elements. This can be done globally with the 'a' selector or for specific links using classes or IDs. Consider web accessibility implications when doing this.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get rid of the link underline in CSS, you would generally use the text-decoration property on anchor (<a>) elements. Specifically, you would set the property to none to remove underlines from links. Here's a simple step-by-step example:

  1. First, select the anchor elements in your CSS file using the a selector.
  2. Then, apply the text-decoration: none; property to this selector.
  3. Now, the underlines should be removed from your links.

Here is a CSS code snippet example:

a {
text-decoration: none;
}

If you intend to remove the underlines only for certain links, you can use a class or an id to be more specific. For example:

.no-underline {
text-decoration: none;
}

Then add the no-underline class to the links in your HTML as required.

Remember that removing the underline from links can affect web accessibility since underlines indicate that text is clickable. It might be a good idea to provide another visual cue for links, such as a color difference or a hover effect.
