If <U> is depreciated then how does one underline? If CSS1 allows text-decoration:underline; then the font dialog box should allow bold and underline since that is the same as CSS1 font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline; Even thought <U> has been depreciated that doesn't mean you cannot underline. In CSS1 underline, overline, blink and line-through are exclusive, IMHO that's a deficiency with CSS1 however, in the font dialog box I should be allowed to choose a font-family, font-style, font-variant, font-weight, font-size along with any text-decoration value.

The font dialog box will be changed too and it will be possible to mix font-weight (bold), font-style (italic) and text-decoration (line-through). As you know <U>...</U> is depreciated, so we don't plan to allow both underline and line-though. Regards Irene.
