Everything is Underlined
-
When I put a new post on my blog today, I noticed that everything I’d posted prior to today–posts, titles, heading, widget text, everything–was underlined. I haven’t been able to figure out what happened or how I can change it. Any help would be great. Thanks!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

I have viewed your blog and I see underlined book titles that are not linked in your posts. Were you by chance linking these book titles to an an affiliate code?

I forgot to say I am using Firefox 4.0 and I can ONLY see the book titles with underlines ie. no other words widgets,etc. were underlined. Normally when something like this effects widgets and the whole blog it’s due to copying and pasting without using the correct icons 5 or 6 in in Row 2 of the Visual editor, or it can also be a result of importing text containing invalid HTML.
Typically this is caused by an open HTML tag in one of your posts or in a text widget. You must locate it and close it.
Go to Settings > Writing and select “ ___ WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically” and then scroll down and click “Save Changes.”
Now, starting with your latest post, open it in the editor, make one minor change such as adding a space and then deleting it, and then click “Update Post.” Check your blog and see if it is back to normal.
If it’s not, then look for an open HTML tag and close it. Check your blog again and see if it is back to normal. If it’s still “messed up” then open the next post and do the same thing post by post until it goes back to normal.
If you have been copying and pasting text from elsewhere without using either icon 5 or icon 6 in Row 2 of the visual editor, please see here so you know how to do this correctly in the future. http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#pasting-text
