Removing the 'marching ants' from a selected image

[zoonimal]

If someone selects an image on my site (and most any other) immediately there's a broken border displayed (like static marching ants) around the pic.

Is there *any* way I can stop this from happening? Like maybe change that colour to be the same as the background or some such? Surely there has to be a way without resorting to Javascripting or such.

I've looked online but have been unsuccessful.

Help me Obi Wan.

So I guess there's no way to stop this happening? No mitigation without using Flash ?

What do you mean by selecting an image? I am not sure what you are refering to. If you could give us a screen shot or example that would be great.

Ah... ok. when displaying an image using :

<a href="images/blah.jpg" TARGET="_top"><img src="images/blahthumb.jpg" height="50" border="6"></a>

... for example - and someone selects that image, ie : clicks on it, the img src pic acquires a broken border around it.

I'm looking for a way to negate that broken border being displayed around the pic.

Does that make sense ? If not - I can post examples.

Cheers for trying to help, by the way. Really appreciate it.

Oh yeah i get what you mean, this effect is not seen in IE7 but is in firefox. I can not think of away of getting around this as surely its to do with the browser being used. I will have a look around and see if i can find anything that coul help.

might be something to request to the FireFox crew?

This should do the trick:

Code: Select all

<style>
<!--
:focus {
   -moz-outline-style: none;
}
-->
</style>
