Only for HTML5, for HTML 4, the 'u' tag was used to define underlined text. Personally, I just added a u, text-decoration: underline in my stylesheet's boilerplate. BTW, that did not make 'u' work with several Android epub renderers one author I worked with wanted to support. <rant about too many Android epub renderers being pieces of crap deleted>.
