Hi Banta,
You're welcome and I'm glad i could help you out, I hate those things to.
Lloyd, I didn't know about the mouse down function but I can see where it would have its place. Thanks, I must try it out some time when I'm dealing with those things again.
Cheers.
Ian

If I remember correctly, you have to add the mousedown event handler too.

code:

onClick="window.focus()"
onMouseDown="window.focus()"
[/code]

Hi Banta,
It is actually very easy to get rid of that dashed rectangle that appears around linked images and links in IE. Just add this to the href line.
onclick="window.focus()"

as an example, your line will look something similar to this.
<a href="http://YOUR-URL.html" onclick="window.focus()" onmouseover="WHAT-EVER" onmouseout="WHAT-EVER"><img SRC="YOUR.gif" ETC, ETC....WIDTH, HEIGHT, BORDER...></a>

hope this is of some help to you.

Johnnyboy,

Thanks a lot... it is very probable that your assumption is true, since in fact I do use Internet Explorer...

Seems like I will better cross out the "Optimized for Internet Explorer" note.. <grin>

Banta,

I believe that is an Internet Explorer specific 'feature'. You can get rid of it two ways.

1) Use Netscape
2) Click somewhere else on the screen at the dashed line will go away.

Of course I could be completely wrong!
