Mike,

Your blog, “Removing the Dotted Outline from Focused Links,” has been really helpful. I’ve been able to use a variation of the code you provided to remove dotted outlines that were visible in Maxthon, IE7, and IE6.

My *html file calls images that need to swap with each onmouseover and onmouseout event.
I found that the following line was preventing the swap onmouseout:
a[i].onmouseout = a[i].onmouseup = function() {
I replaced the line with this one:
a[i].onmouseup = function() {

The change seems o.k., so far. Image swapping seems to work fine onmouseout, and ugly dotted outlines are gone.

Thank you!!!

I was just writting about this other day… and with jQuery!

$(“div.navigation a”).each(function(){this.onmouseup = this.blur();});
