Of the 5 top browsers 3 don't have a border and 2 have.

The underline convention is widely retained, so users actually can use the convention as a signal. The border is virtually universally removed by authors, so it's not a convention users can look for as a signal. -- Henri Sivonen hsivonen at iki.fi http://hsivonen.iki.fi/
