Re: Underline element.

You can, but <u> is presentational mark-up, and there shouldn't be 
presentational mark-up in HTML.
Use CSS to achieve the underline as follows:

<p>This is a paragraph and <em>this is emphasised</em></p>

em { text-decoration : underline; }

Or, if the text you wish to underline has no semantic difference to the 
text around it (i.e., is purely decorational) use something like this:

<p>Here is a meaningless corporate <span>style</span></p>

span { text-decoration : underline; }
