What is the significance of the yellow bars under some of the column names?

Some are green, some are yellow, and I've seen some go yellow and back
to green?

A screenshot would be helpful to indicate what you mean by bars.

Xymon displays status in a grid, test along the top, host down the side,
the coloured blob indicates the status of the test on a host.

As below, you can see "bbd" and "conn" are both underlined in yellow. 
The other monitors are green.

If you click on the CPU heading, does the underline turn yellow?

I think that is your browser specifying historical links, non visited
links, etc.

Those column headers are html links.  Someone clicked through "bbd" &
"conn", so those links changed to the "link visited" colour.

I've just done some quick checking and it looks like it's a Firefox
thing.

 
I don't get it in IE9, Safari or Chrome but I do see the same as Michael
in Firefox.

I get the same effect in IE8. This is correct behaviour based on the contents of xymonbody.css:

a:link { color: #00FFAA; text-decoration: underline; }
a:visited { color: #FFFF44; text-decoration: underline; } 

This should make all hyperlinks green unless they have been visited, in which case they are yellow.

If you want to change this, edit ~xymon/server/www/gifs/xymonbody.css.

For example:

a:link { color: #87a9e5; text-decoration: underline; }
a:visited { color: #87a9e5; text-decoration: underline; } 

or

a:link { text-decoration: none; }
a:visited { text-decoration: none; }

It seems that Chrome (and looks like IE9 too) honours the HTML FONT tag around the link text, which overrides the css:

<A HREF="/xymon-cgi/columndoc.sh?bbd"><FONT COLOR="#87a9e5" SIZE="-1"><B>bbd</B></FONT></A>

The styling should really be done with css alone otherwise we will get these inconsistencies between browsers. I seem to recall we've had conversations about this kind of thing on the list before.
