Get rid of Dotted box around links with CSS

After I click a link on my site a dotted box appears around the link/image. From looking through the forums I have learned that this is a "focus state" used by people without a mouse to tab through the site and see where they are. I have also read the way to get rid of it was to put;
a:focus img { outline:none; }
into the css.
I tried that and it didnt work. If this is infact the correct way to get rid of it, where exactly in the css should i put it?

You have 2 Spry menu systems on your site. If you want this applied to all links, put this anywhere in your layout.css file.
a {outline:none}

How do I get rid of blue boxes surrounding links?

Viewing .pdf files in Reader on my Android tablet, all my links are shown in a light blue field. This looks terrible and does not happen when I view them in other .pdf readers.
How can I get rid of these???
Thanks!

I don't think you can change the text box field properties using Reader; you would need an Acrobat type of app. The blue field box lets you know there is an active hyperlink and not just blue print that is underlined. If you open the same pdf in another pdf viewer you probably see the url with a blue underline but it isn't active. Kind of frustrating to see a blue underlined url and it doesn't work when you want to jump to it. In Adobe Reader, the light blue field box lets you know the link is active and not just blue print that is underlined. If you want to be able to follow the link you won't be able to in other readers. It's also handy to be able to identify the active links to more easily avoid making an accidental jump. The hyper-link field boxes are not always blue - in a colored background they might look like shadows. The colored field box should not show when you print the doc or when you view on other than mobile devices.

How do I get rid of blue boxes around hotspots?

Hi there,
I've added three hotspots to this website, but after you click on them it leaves a non-so-pleasant blue box around them.
http://chanlegge.comjavascript:;http://chanlegge.com/
I should point out also that these appear for me in Safari and Chrome, but not Firefox.
I'm a complete dolt when it comes to webdesign (as you can see, the website is basically just two jpegs) and don't know about CSS etc, but I am hoping there is a simple way to avoid having these. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Johnny

I must have been on the wrong page when I looked initially.
@JohnJohnJohn,
If you ever want to have a search engine index your site (so people can find you using Google and the like) you need to seriously reconsider what you're doing. Since your pages consist of a single image that is then mapped, there's nothing for the search engines to index in any meaningful way. Search engines rely on relevant, keyword rich, html text to give your site any kind of position in a viewer's search results. As far as the search engines are concerned, right now, your pages are blank.
Also, as it stands now, anyone with a screen reader will get what amounts to a blank page, even if they do happen across your site somehow.
Finally, the mailto links you are using won't do anything when clicked for any user who relies on browser based email clients (gmail, yahoo, hotmail, etc) because the mailto link activates email clients installed on the actual computer. If someone viewing your site without something like Outlook installed, clicking your mailto link does nothing. It's much, much better to use a form to email script (usually available from your hosting provider) to allow users to contact you no matter how their email is set up.

Can't get rid of black box around rendered HD footage.....

I've read a thread about t
he "black box" that appears in HD footage, but didn't find an answer.
I use a PC, and edit with Adobe Premiere 3.0.
I have a Canon camcorder that uses MiniDV HD tapes to capture the HD footage, because I wanted
the tapes as back up, and the quality is better, in my opinion.
I capture the footage with the HDV capture in Premiere.
The captured file looks damn nice, full screen HD. The book says the screen size is 1440 by 1080,
but the actual screen size looks to be 1920 by 1080.
When I open up the captured file in Real Player or Windows Media Player, there is no black on the sides,
and two strips on the top and bottom that are maybe 1/4 an inch, not a problem.
When I RENDER the editted footage, I click "export" and "movie"
In the settings menu, under General, I choose"File Type" and "Microsoft AVI."
In the Video section, I choose the "Cinepak Codec by Radius"
Under Pixel Aspect Ratio, the options are:
Square Pixels (1.0)
D1/DV NTSC (0.9)
D1/DV NTSC Widescreen 16:9 (1.2)
Anamorphic 2:1 (2.0)
HD Anamorphic 1080 (1.333)
DVCPRO HD (1.5)
There is also the Keyframe and Rendering menu on the left.
When I try to use the top options, I get variation of the file with about a 1 1/2 to 2 inch black box on all sides, but the aspect
is correct, or a 1 to 1 1/2 inch box at top, no box on the sides, but the frame is mushed down.
Or the frame is square, and the vido image is pushed inward.
An example of my initial video is below, where the aspect was correct:
"Wildlife at Lake Fasse Point"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sisu86-HWV0
If I play a rendered file in Windows Media Player, even if I hit "Double Size" or "Play Full Screen," the edges will STILL be bounded
by that big black box.
I appreciate any help.

About every 10 photos in my iPhoto library I get a grey dotted box. wheres the photo?

about every 10 photos in my iPhoto library I get a grey dotted box. wheres the photo?

Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff: What version of iPhoto. What version of the Operating System. Details. What were you doing when the problem arose? Did it ever work properly? Step-by-step descriptions of how you got to this issue. If something doesn't work, are there error messages? What happens when you try to do this thing? And what steps have you tried already to solve the issue. With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that a helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

HT5132 How do I get rid of the box showing up ......

How do I get rid of the box showing up all the time when I start the computer and plug in my iPhone its highly annoying. Tried everything at this stage only for it to pop up again the next time

Is "the box" a message or alert window? What does it say? Can you post a screenshot? (We have no way of knowing what you see.)
What have you tried so far? Listing this will help avoid the unnecessary work of suggesting things you've already done.

C4700 installed ;Get rid of black box on screen??

Installed printer, it works fine. Can't get rid of black box panel on left side of computer screen;says clip book on top. So can't see left half of websites or email. Also dragging box over to print doesn't go out of panel.

hi,
I believe this is the HP Smart Web Print software that was installed after installing the full feature driver of the printer. You can uninstall it from Add/Remove Programs of the Control Panel if you are using Windows XP, or it is in Uninstall A Program of Programs and FEatures of Windows Vista or Windows 7.

How do I get rid of bad email that starts with info @ they jam if opened

Anybody know how to get rid of bad email that starts with info @ in the address bar? They jam the mail program if opened, now I have 25 that need to go! Help?

You only need to post once. You have to have some patience. I posted this response in your other question as well.
Don't open those emails, swipe across them in the preview window to bring up the red delete button and use that.
If the mail app is frozen and you can't do anything in it, close it from the recents tray and reboot the iPad.
From your home screen, double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the mail app icon. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

How do I get rid of various lines around text boxes when using navigation panes

How can I get rid of these various lines that are displaying sporatically around different text boxes . . . but only when the navigation panel is displaying? I previously had the issue and changed the text box properties to no fill. It fixed the problem in the document with no navigation panel, but once the navigation panel is displayed the lines appear. And yes, I fixed the text box properties before creating the bookmarks for the navigation panel.

Every device, browser and browser version has its idiosyncrasies.
Just using a stroke and a drop shadow should not have been enough to require Muse to convert the page fill to an image. Were/are there also other effects on the page? Are the page corners slightly rounded?
Bevel and Inner Glow definitely require an image to be created. Most other effects/properties do not.
