Demo
At the time of this writing, text-decoration-style
is only officially supported in Firefox. It will also work in Chrome browsers with the experimental web platform features flag enabled.
Shorthand
In browsers that support text-decoration-style
and text-decoration-color
you can add a decoration style to a text-decoration
shorthand property:
.underlined {
text-decoration: underline dotted red;
}
Currently only Firefox supports this unprefixed. Safari supports it with the -webkit
prefix. Chrome also needs the -webkit
prefix and experimental web platform features enabled in Chrome flags.

Nice browser support… …NOT!
Can’t wait until they support all of it. Pretty neat new features!!!
Yeowch. Is there any reason this isn’t supported as well as it should be?
