When you click on a graphic link in a web page you get an annoying dotted-line box around the object. How can I build my website so this does not happen on published pages?

Many thanks.

Colin.

if the graphic is a link, insert the following into the <a>...

onFocus="blur();"

this well eliminate the outline one see when clicking on the graphic, works for test links as well... and its great for imagemaps.

Thanks Fatnutz,

But can you be more specific. What do you mean by the <a>... Can you give an example.

Sorry to be a bit slow, but I am a beginner at HTML etc.

Thanks.

Colin.

<a> is an anchor tag. when you see thest that is a link, it is inside an anchor tag.

example:

<pre id=code><font face=courier size=2 id=code>&lt;a href="somepage.htm"&gt;Click here&lt;/a&gt; </font id=code></pre id=code>

I think I had a similar problem back when I was using FrontPage (brrr... got the chills) The reason is simple, you might have a border. Check your CSS or HTML code to see if thats the case.
