HTML <u> tag

HTML <u> tag is used to define a span of inline text with a non-textual annotation. It rendered as an solid underlined text, but it can be changed using CSS properties. This tag was deprecated in HTML 4.0 and redefined in HTML5.

In HTML5, <u> tag is used to represent the text that is stylistically different with normal text.
