Android TextView link without underline?

I use a TextView with links by this:

TextView tv ... 
tv.setText( Html.fromHtml(somehtml))

It is ok to control the link color by setting attribute android:textColorLink, but can I remove the underline of it?

Spanned android.text.Html.fromHtml(String source, ImageGetter imageGetter, TagHandler tagHandler)

The important part is the TagHandler. You have to implement one and then you can hopefully modify it.

Another solution: handle textview link click in my android app

OK now with html anchor tag, to avoid the underline now use the property STYLE="text-decoration:none"

< a STYLE="text-decoration:none" HREF=\"link.html\">it has no underline < /a >

this must work with a WebView but in a TextView I was using Android 1.5, 1.6 and thats not possible. =(

Just remove the html < u > tag, that indicates an underline text !
