CSS - Link Border
Hi,
Im having problems with a link. when I click on the link a grey dotted border appears around the element, and remains there until i click somewhere else on the page (the link is actually a JS onclick event) Any ideas? Xaphan edit: tried the :active and :focus pseudo-classes, but to no avail. Similar TutorialsI have my links defined with a dashed border, but I don't want this on linked images and I'm trying to figure out if I can accomplish this with CSS only without additional markup in my HTML file. Here is a sample file: http://www. shawkey.com/test/imagebordertest.html Any suggestions on how I can get the dashed border to not appear below the image and only appear below the text with just CSS? I've got this odd border appearing around my link when I click on it and after it's been clicked on until I click elsewhere on the page (or if I click on it again to fold accordion). I'm not sure whether this falls under CSS or JavaScript as it's an accordion list through jQuery. I've tried adding border: none; and that did nothing. Any help greatly appreciated! I can't set the border around my links in a drop down list, not the top level or 2nd level. I do it on #nav (id for whole 2 level lists group) on all these to make sure but no black border. #nav a {..} #nav ul {...} #nav ul li { ...} #nav li { /* all list items */ float: left; background: lightblue; width: 100px; /* width needed or else Opera goes nuts */ border-width=1 1 thin thin; border-color=black; I have a test page for an image and it does not display a border. It only changes the cursor to a hand on hoover. Once clicked and subsequently returned to the page, the image does not have the dotted outline of its' border either. This is as it should be. Here is the code: Code: <html>
<head>
<style>
img, fieldset {
border: 0;
}
</style>
<a href="http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=referer" border="0"><img
src="http://www.w3.org/Icons/valid-html401"
alt="Valid HTML 4.01 Transitional" height="31" width="88"></a>
</head>
</body>
Next, I have my development pages where I have multiple link styles on each page defined by an external style sheet, prime.css. here is the relavant portion of the code: Code: a:link {
color: #2F4F4F;
text-decoration: underline;
}
a:visited {
color: #778899;
text-decoration: underline;
}
a:active {
text-decoration: underline
}
a:hover {
text-decoration: underline;
background-color: #2F4F4F;
color: #FFFFFF;
}
.intraLink:link {
color: #2F4F4F;
text-decoration: none;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}
.intraLink:visited {
color: #778899;
text-decoration: none;
}
.intraLink:active {
text-decoration: none;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}
.intraLink:hover {
text-decoration: none;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
color:#D2691E;
}
.back:link {
color: #2F4F4F;
text-decoration: none;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}
.back:visited {
color: #778899;
text-decoration: none;
}
.back:active {
text-decoration: none;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}
.back:hover {
text-decoration: none;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
color:#2E8B57;
}
.image:link {
color: #2F4F4F;
text-decoration: none;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}
.image:visited {
color: #778899;
text-decoration: none;
}
.image:active {
text-decoration: none;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}
.image:hover {
text-decoration: none;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
color: none;
}
.pageStyle {
background-color: none;
font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
width: 800px;
font-size: 62.5%;
margin: 0 auto;
padding-top: 50px;
margin-bottom: 25px;
line-height: 1.5;
}
#main {
float: left;
width: 590px;
padding-bottom: 25px;
}
Explanation for the multiple styles: the default link style is to change the 'default' hyperlinks to match my color scheme. The .intraLink is for links within the current page. The .back style is for calling the previous page and finally the .image style is for all images with href references. Even though this scheme works there is a slight problem. Once an image that is used as a link is clicked and user returns to the page then the image has a dotted line as a border! I'd like it to not have that border, i.e., I'd like it to work just as the test page works, nice and clean. Also, I'm not sure about my linking styles. I'm new with CSS and it just seems like I've done more than I really need too; like it seems like it's a lot to do to simply not have the border appear when the test page is so lean! Is there a better way? Here's the offending page code and thanks for taking the time to read this, I know it's a trivial point but I'd like to understand why: Code: <html>
<head>
<title>index.html :: home page
</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="prime.css">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
</head>
<body class="pageStyle">
<b>:: Index.html ::</b><hr>
<div id="main">
<ul>
<li>
<a href="rs_cv.html">My CV</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<a href="http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=referer" border="0" class="image"><img
src="http://www.w3.org/Icons/valid-html401"

I just don't know how to get rid of the border around my image links... When you go to the site, everything looks okay, but when you press the link ("blog"), a border appears around it. And if you click it and then return back, the border is there all the time. Why? I have written "border: none;" pretty much everywhere in my css I can think of! I'm running out of ideas... This is probably something really simple so please help me out, I'm not much of a programmer as you can see.. The same border-problem repeats also on that blog-page which is a wordpress layout and should have nothing to do with my css!? The site is he http://prettydisturbed.com/ And my css around the problem looks like this: Code:
#blog {
display: block;
float: left;
width: 96px;
height: 62px;
background: url('../img/blog_mo.jpg') no-repeat 0 0;
border: none;
}
a #blog img {
border: none;
text-decoration: none;
}
#blog:hover
{
background-position: 0 -62px;
border: none;
}
#blog:visited
{
border: none;
}
#blog span
{
display: none;
border: none;
}
p {
font-family: Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 13px;
color: #000000;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
border: none;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:link {
text-decoration: none;
color: #ffffff;
font-size: 13px;
border: none;
}
a:visited {
text-decoration: none;
color: #ffffff;
font-size: 13px;
border: none;
}
a:hover {
text-decoration: none;
color: #ff39da;
font-size: 13px;
border: none;
}
a:active {
text-decoration: none;
border: none;
}
I use the following CSS for my links, and use a border-bottom to give them a dashed underline... Code: a {
color: #AC4870;
border-bottom: 1px dashed #DDDDDD;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover {
color: #DDDDDD;
border-bottom: 1px dashed #AC4870;
text-decoration: none;
}
This underline also shows up under my images that are used as links. How would you write CSS that would remove this dashed border-bottom from my image links? Thanks Can any of you tell me why with the a:link/visited set with border:none (as in the example at the bottom of the e-mail), I get a box around an image inside a link: <a href="communication.php"><img src="resources/president.jpg"></a> Working on a MAC, I noticed that the border only appears in Firefox but not in Safari, Opera and OmniWeb. Can anyone tell me why this border appears around the image, why only in FF, and of course, how one can make it dissappear using the stylesheet? STYLESHEET: a {text-decoration: none;} a:link { color: #000000; border: none;} a:visited { color: #000000; border: none;} a:hover { color: #bbbb00; border: none;} a:active { color: #000000; border: none;} .image{border-width:0px; border: none;} hi, yea I got an a link wrapped around an image, but the image is coming up with tis weird pink border around it, anyon know how I can get rid of this border? thx Hi, I have pictorial buttons that really are <a href's></a> with img buttons in between. When viewed in IE i get a bluish/purple box around my buttons. I want to eliminate the link marking around the images. How do I do this? Thanks for all and any suggestions. Melroy I have an image I am using for my submit button, it has this "Link Box" around it that I want to go away. I just want the image shown and not the border or whatever is happening here. I assume it is because it is a link. I use an external style sheet for the rest of the page, so if there is a suggestion for me to reference a style from the style sheet, this would be a huge help. I have read about everything I could and still cannot find my answer. Is there a way to get rid of the box around my image using CSS? Here is what I have: <input name="imageField" type="image" onClick="return valLoginForm(frmLogin)" src="images/b_login.gif" width="60" height="18" > Thank you for your help. Hi. Have created some simple tabs using table cells. Active tab should have bottom-border color equal to page background-color. Non-active tabs should have bottom-border=black. Works fine in IE, but does not work very well in Firefox. If I remove the border-collapse:collapse on the table, then firefox also work... but I would like to be able to keep the 1px border between each table cell. So is there a way to make this work in both IE and Firefox... and hopefully most other browsers... See code below: Code:

1. Load the page.<br>
2. Click Item 4.<br>
3. Click Item 2.<br><br>
Why is the bottom border of the menuelements (table cells) not getting correct in Firefox?<br>
None-active menuelements should have a border-bottom = black, active should have same bottom-border as page.<br>
Notice that I use border-collapse on the table in order to get the cell-border 1px thick between the menuitems.<br>
If I remove border-collapse, then there is no strange behaviour in Firefox.<br>
Any way to get this working in Firefox without breaking it in IE?

I'm a little puzzled by this weird display bug by IE7, this bug doesn't occur in IE6. It had to do with the DIV's CSS's border-style. If you set it to double then you notice some random bugs with it. Some of the time, the border is displayed without a problem. Some of the time, it is displayed with some gaps in the line as if it is not being drawn upon. Some of the other time, it is not displayed at all. I noticed if I switch from one tab to another then back, the border appeared as if nothing had happened. I also noticed that if I open the view source that overlapp the web browser then closed it, the border appeared as if nothing had happened. How do you fix that problem? Thanks... I would like to set up a table with a different border than the cells inside it. Here's my code: Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

That's all hunky dory in (gasp!) IE, but good browsers...they only show the lighter gray color. How do I get the table border to be different? Hi, This used to be my solution: Code: <table border=1 bordercolorlight='#CCCCCC' Bordercolordark='#FFFFFF'> But this only works well on IE - not Mozilla Now I want to use CSS: Code:
.results {
border: 1px solid #CCCCCC ;
}
Code: <table class='results'> --------------- The problem is, with CSS, only the TABLE acquires the border property. The cells within it don't. If I specify Code: <td class='results'> for all the cells in the table, this also won't work, because the cell borders overlap each other and some border lines seem thicker than others (because of overlapping). Is there any simple way I can specify the border property for the table - in ONE declaration? I want the table and td borders all to be a simple 1px width ...is that possible in one declaration? Thanks a lot! How do you create an inner border around a table in css, rather than a "solid" border which creates a border line around the table on the outer half. The border needs to butt up against an image, rather than leaving a pixel space. This is the coder I have so far. Nothing big: Code:
.solid {
border: solid 1px #000000;
}
Thanks. PROBLEM: I create a nice button using the sliding doors technique for rounded corners. But the button displays with 100% width unless I float it. My layout requires that the buttons be inline with the text, so floating won't work. Anyone know an alternative? I wouldn't mind floating but I want the button to show inline with the text. When I use float:left, it removes it from the inline flow. Basically, I want a very modular button that can be used in several different places on a page. In many cases, floating is fine because the mockup has it out of the inline text, but I want to use it there, too. Here's the HTML: <a class="button" href="#"><span>Update Profile</span></a> Here's the css: a.button:link, a.button:visited { background:url(button_right.gif) no-repeat right top; } a.button span:hover, a.button span:active { background:url(button_left_hover.gif) no-repeat right top; } a.button span { background:url(button_left.gif) no-repeat left top; color:#fff; cursorointer; display:block; height:20px; line-height:20px; margin:0 2px 0 0; padding:0 10px; position:relative; white-space:nowrap; } http://tinyurl.com/5llwfl I'm having some problems with this page in particular. Try clicking on one of the Left or Right white image arrows below the main picture. This only occurs in Firefox 2.x. Once you click the link, the content area below "Starting from $278.497" should shift roughly 5 pixels down. I thought it may be related to the dotted link outline that surrounds the image, but that was not the case. I applied styles to get rid of that and there was no changes. I also thought it may be related to a position:relative; bug which this site has been notorious for. I tried making certain divs in that area position:relative to no avail. So to test further I tried an overall #content *{position:relative;} fix which could not fix the position shift, either. I'm not sure what else it could be. And while I do have access to the build of this app, I have not been able to reproduce the issue by downloading all HTML, CSS, and image files locally. Hello Is there a way i can restore my <a href> link back to its original color, that is before the a:visited event, when I click on another link? PS. no Javascript code needed, is their an alternative in css? Hello is there a way to make it so hyperlinks are not decorated as the default blue? I have the following css which I've attempted to make it so the text '.com' is always white, but it defaults to the standard link color. html: <td class="nodecoration"><a class="nodecoration" href="http://www.somesite.com">.com</a></td> css: Code:
td.nodecoration {
background-color: #003399; color: white; width: 120px; height: 30px; font-family: "Verdana", sans-serif; font-size: 25px; font-weight: bold; text-align:center;
}
A:link.nodecoration {text-decoration: none}
A:visited.nodecoration{text-decoration:none}
A:active.nodecoration{text-decoration:none}
a:hover.nodecoration{text-decoration:underline}
Hey on my website: http://www.chamillionairechat.com I want there to be a border around the mainmenu and to look something like this: And this is the css i'm using for the mainmenu: Code: .mainmenu { background-color:#FFFFFF; padding-bottom:5px; border:1px border-color:#21511F; }
So does anyone know what i'm doing wrong Thanks |
