n00b question: how do I get rid of underlines?

[GrendelKhan{TSU]

anyone know why these little underlines appear? And HOW TO GET RID OF THEM?

no matter what I do they just won't go away. and its a small thing...but really really really annoying.

any help would be greatly appreciated. these things really buggin the crap outta me. :/


oh here's the code...nothing weird here:

<!---- ### To the top ###-------->
<a href="#top" align="left">
<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/top.gif" alt="$vbphrase[topofthread]" border="0" />
</a>
<!---- ### / To the top ###-------->

<!---------### GO UP ONE LEVEL ###------------->
<a href="./forumdisplay.php?f=$forum[forumid]">
<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/uplevel.gif" alt="$vbphrase[uplevel]" border="0" />
</a>
