CSS text-decoration Property
The text-decoration property is used to set the decoration of the text.
In CSS3, it is a shorthand for the following properties:
text-decoration-line
text-decoration-color
text-decoration-style
If the value of one of these properties is absent, the default value will automatically be set. The text-decoration-line is required.

none
