Graphic rollovers from text-blue outline

Hi. Why, after clicking on a link made from graphic text (show/hide layer triggers), do I get a blue glow around the link? Not from regular graphic rollovers, not from regular text rollovers? This is happening in Safari, not Opera or Firefox.

Go here and look at the pendant versus other links to see what I mean.

Hi all
this exact thing is happening to my gallery thumbs only in Safari after I added the javascript hype link to the thumbs, the awful blue highlight glows off the thumbs

I contacted softpress so they are looking into it but I thought I would throw it out there as time is an issue
thx

Simple CSS fix:

a { outline: none }

Add that (in a style tag) to your page head.

ok I put code in and it only affects the first thumb but not the rest so this tells me I did something wrong. I usually do!

hi thomas ok thx for chipping in
I put the code in and only first thumb works, but I already have a font style markup on before/

so maybe I need to combine style tags? I learned that from Dave

yes - all CSS styles need to be wrapped by the opening/close style tag. Don’t create a second one, so simply put the a property beyond your already existing font style.

Walt,

I am suddenly having the blue box problem too as I redid my navigation icons a little differently and it suddenly appeared when I added a ROLLOVER.

I wanted to add your simple code fix but I already have tooltips code there and was not sure where to add what you mentioned??
this is what I have already in page, HTML markup, before head

Can I still add it to this to make the blue box go away?
Thanks,

Barry

Hi, does anyone know if there is a solution for this in Express? I tried adding the HTML markup solutions proposed above but no change… thanks

Can you post a link to the page where you’re seeing the issue? It’s often faster to make the change in Safari Web Inspector, and then tell you what the change needs to be.

If you’re making graphic text and then applying a link to that text (or worse – to only part of the text) then you are creating an image map instead of a normal link. I have not been that lucky trying to style image map links the same way that you would a normal image link.

To get a normal image link, copy the graphic text of your link, then delete it from the HTML box where it currently appears. At a flashing text cursor (where you want the graphic text to appear) choose Insert / Graphic Item from the main menu. Click once on the resulting 100px square inline graphic, and use the corner handles to stretch it into shape. Double-click inside it so you have a graphic text cursor, and paste. If the link came along for the ride, then select all, and in the link picker at the bottom of the Freeway window, choose No Link. Now click elsewhere, then back on the graphic box. Apply your link to the box, not the text itself. This will give you a link that will either not show the outline anyway, or will respond to the simple CSS that has been posted in this thread.
