i knew we can do a underline in html with code , what is the code for aboveline in html. thank you very muchThe U element was depricated for good reasons. You're supposed to use HTML to describe meaning and not to control presentation. And, underlining is best reserved for links. 
 
If you want to use overlinning to indicate emphasis, then mark up that part of the text with an EM element and then use CSS to specify how you want the EM elements to be presented. In this case I've turned off the default italic font style and added overlinning.
