    if you mean below a <h2> then just adding a border-bottom:1px solid red in your CSS should suffice.

    if you mean after the heading text, then try this:

    HTML

    <h2 class="underline"><span>lorem ipsum</span></h2>

    CSS

    h2.underline { padding-right:20px; border-bottom:1px solid red; position:relative; }
h2.underline span { display:block; border-bottom:1px solid white; position:absolute; bottom:-1px } /*border color must be same as background color. assumed here to be white*/

    Another approach that will work for browsers that support :after is to generate the “_” with CSS.
