Active link and dashed border

[Cherubae]

You know when you select a Link URL in IE, it puts a grey dashed border around the link (and any spacing around the link)... I read many years ago how to remove that grey-dashed line, but I can't remember how to do it. Does anyone know? It was very simple, like adding a specific word in the <a href link code.....

<a href="#null" onclick="this.blur()">Link</a>

Should do it

YA YA thisblur! That's it! w00t! :D :D

is there any reason no to use hidefocus="true"

I find it works better for me, in ie 6 anyway

[redhead]

hidefocus is not valid and only works in IE.

for accessability reasons I'm against hiding the focus of any links - it means that poeple who are only able to navigate through tabbing through all the links cant even navigate a site.

It also means that we that are able but prefer keyboard navigation get mighty angry and vindictive. We also tend to see the outline as a feature and become confused and scared if we don't se it.
Just thought you wanted to know. :D
