I am working w/html on a web page this is giving me trouble. One of my pages has a poem on it w/some additional html (for lack of space) below it. No matter what I do, the lines in the poem keep coming out UNDERLINED, even though they don't appear to be one the "preview" page. I am including the pertinent script below. Can you tell me (specifically) what changes I need to make to get this to come out right?

When I copy your code, there is a space between <span> (9th one). That takes care of the strike through in the text.

Then there is a space between <span> (17th one). Don't know what that one does?

You can check the coding for the URL link - if the link is not terminated correctly with a </a> then the rest of the paragraph, DIV etc. will be underlined.

Try not to e-kill readers of your code by pasting one-liners.
