[Mediawiki-l] Security level changing link appearance

I'm testing MediaWiki for use as a knowledge for victim assistance
professionals, but which will also be available for viewing by the
general public. Due to the specialist nature of the knowledge base,
I'm enabling the following security strings in LocalSettings.php to
limit editors to those who sign on, and reserving new account
creation to myself (I should mention that I am most definitely not a
programmer):
# Specify who can edit
$wgWhitelistEdit = true;
# Specify who may create new accounts:
$wgWhitelistAccount = array ( 'user' => 0, 'sysop' => 1, 'developer'
=> 1 );
I've noticed that when $wgWhitelistAccount=array is enabled,
hyperlinks on the site lose their underlining. The text still
appears in blue (or red for new pages), but the hypertext underlining
only becomes visible to users after they log in. This change takes
place in all browsers I've tested (IE, Netscape, Firefox, Opera).
Is there a way to correct this? If so, please explain simply; I'll
do my best to follow instructions, but as I said, I'm not a
programmer.
Thanks!
