CSS - Want Border On Link Text, Not Link Image
I 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? Similar TutorialsI 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"
alt="Valid HTML 4.01 Transitional" height="31" width="88"></a>
</body>

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 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;
}
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 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; } Hello, i am new to css and i am trying to create text links on an image file using css and html my problem is i can create one text link using the css and html code i am about to post. but i need to have 4 or 5 text links on this picture example would be Text Link Text Link Text Link Text Link Text Link here is the css i am using Code:
.imagecontainer {
position:relative;
float:right;
}
.imagecontainer a {
position:absolute;
top:200px;

color:#FFFFFF;
font-weight: bold;

Really hoping someone can help me with this... I'll try and explain this as best I can(!) Basically I've got a page containing a block of 9 images, with each linking to a video clip. At the moment I've got the CSS coded so that whenever the mouse is hovered over the 'infobar' (at the bottom of each image) it goes from having a transparent background with black text to having a grey background with white text. What I'm trying to achieve is that same effect whenever the mouse is hovered over any part of the image and infobar. The live online link can be found at: www.markmcm.co.uk/test/test.html The CSS is as as follows: Code:

Any help would be very-much appreciated - and save an old bloke from tearing too much of his hair out(!) Im looking to make it so when someone rolls over a img i have linked it makes the text (which is also a link) next to it act like it has been rolled over as well. Basically its a list set up like this. Code: <dt><a href="#"><img src="blah"/></a></dt> <dd><a href="#">Text link here</a></dd> I've seen it done a few ways, but none of them work really for my setup. The ones I've seen set up the IMG as a background positioned. Anyone have an answer? Let say you have this: <a href="#"> <img src="some.gif" alt=""> Some text </a> I want to have underline for the text on hover, but not for image. How do I do that for the above A IMG text? I want both the IMG and text within the A tag. Would appreciate a solution that worked in at least: IE, FF, OP, NE, Safari For me it is working in IE and OP but not in the gecko browsers.... FF, NE Regards Hello, I'm trying to create an list menu like the one in attached image and I have 2 problems. 1. In IE 6,IE 7 the list is ordered verticaly and not horizontaly (in Opera and FF it is ok) 2. I need to align the text on the bottom of the list like inattached image. Here is what I manage to do till now : http://www.sibiul.net/test/list-align.php Anyone knows what I must do ? 10x Hi everyone, I'm looking for a solution that I thought (hoped) would be simple. ...but of course is not. I use sprites for rollover effects so the hover attribute just changes the background image position. Everything works cool with the rollovers. What I would like to do, is make a text link that when rolled over will change a separate background image to it's hover state. I should add, that the the rollover image has it's own div and is separate from where the text link is located. To get a visual you can check the website (just remove the *) *onholdmusicsource*.com In the body section I would like to make each of the dark red section titles a link that when rolled over will change the hover state of the corresponding "more" button. Comments would be fine Ideas would be great Solutions would be fantastic Many Thanks- 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, 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. 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'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 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;} 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? HI guys, I am working on This website . On the left hand navigation menu I would like anywhere in the li to be a link but at the moment only the text is a link. See below html/css Code: <div class="sideMenu">
<ul>
<li><a href="index.html">Welcome</a></li>
<li><a href="home page/about.html">About SEDDA</a></li>
<li><a href="home page/location.html">Locations</a></li>
<li><a href="home page/contact.html">Contact</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
Code:
.sideMenu ul {
margin-left: 0px;
margin-top: 4px;
padding: 0px;
margin-right: 0px;
margin-bottom: 0px;
}
.sideMenu li {
list-style-type: none;
margin-top: 12px;
margin-bottom: 12px;
margin-left: 0px;
font-size: 14px;
font-weight: normal;
margin-right: 0px;
background-color: #004054;
white-space: normal;
padding-top: 6px;
padding-bottom: 6px;
padding-right: 0px;
padding-left: 0px;
}
.sideMenu li:hover {
background-color: #CCCCCC;
}
.sideMenu a {
color: #FFFFFF;
text-decoration: none;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 10px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
z-index: 10;
white-space: normal;
width: 100%;
}
.sideMenu a:hover {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
color: #FFFFFF;
white-space: normal;
}
Unless I'm mistaken I 've used the same method successfully before without problem. Can anybody tell me what the problem is please. Thanks James |
