Details
The following code should create button-like links that "pop up" on mouseover, similar to the toolbar buttons in Netscape 4.0x. However, when the code is rendered in the browser and a link clicked on, the border superimposes a dotted border on the outset, instead of changing from outset to inset. (Oddly enough, if the pointer is "dragged" off of the link, with the mouse button down, the border changes to inset when the pointer leaves the region. The dots don't go away, though.) Bug was discovered in recent MacOS build (proto-M11, only a couple days old). <STYLE> A:link {color:rgb(255,75,116);text-decoration:none;} A:active {color:rgb(255,75,116);text-decoration:none;border-width:2px;border- style:inset;border-color:gray;} A:hover {border-width:2px;border-style:outset;border-color:gray;} </STYLE> <P><A HREF="foobarexam.html">Link</A>

The dotted outline is happening due to the link gaining focus. It is not a border, but rather an outline. See CSS2 spec. You can remove the outline from focused links with the rule: a:focus { outline: none } The behavior that links gain focus by being clicked on is new. You may want to file a seperate bug on that if you find the behavior undesirable.
