Re: [css-d] CSS to eliminate dotted borders on hyperlink clicks

2007-10-08 Thread Walt F. Schaefer 
 
I remember reading somewhere about CSS you can add, so that links won't get
the dotted border around them when you click on the links , but I cannot
remember what it is. Can anyone refresh my memory? This may be just a
Firefox thing.

That dotted outline is there for accessibility. If the visitor navigates the
page using the keyboard the dotted outline tells them the link (image) is
active (selected). Removing the outline, IMO, is a bad idea. Form really
should follow function, again IMO.

The dotted outline is there to show which link has keyboard focus.
If you take it off, you might need to replace it with some other
visual cue using the :focus selector. Try tabbing through your page
to make sure you can navigate it with the keyboard.

I guess you're talking about "outline".
