Hi Josiah would you be able to show us your code so we can get a better understanding :) Because you should not be getting the title underlined!

If you are using a style sheet, it could add an underline so that could be the problem.

You Might have something like h1{text-decoration:underline} , simply change the underline to none :-)

Now that I know how to do answers properly.. Does your Heading look like this? '''html <h1> Title Not Underlined </h1> ''' If yes then your answer probably lies in a style sheet you may be using.

Double check your style sheet like it says above for

''' h1 {text-decoration:underline} ''' or ''' h1 {border-bottom:1px solid #333} '''

If that is still a problem then use a reset.css to ensure all styling is removed such as underlined links.
