Hi.

I'm new to Mac so forgive my ignorance.

When I use IE and click on buttons like the ones you have on the top bar
of www.apple.com , I get ugly light-blue lines around the button.


ON SAFARY I DON'T SEE THESE LINES AT ALL.

my 2 questions are:

1. Is there a way to set IE differently so I won't see these lines.

2. Is there something I can insert into the code of my website
to prevent Mac users with IE to see these lines when they click on my buttons.

Thanks a lot,
Yoga99

Use border="0" in the image tags.

For example:

Code:

<img src="http://rcbonline.com/store1.jpg" border="0" height="207" width="275">

using CSS...

Code:

a img, a:link img, a:visited img { border: 0; }

thanks, guys, really, but...

😕 I tried both options and it didn't help. I still see this blue lines around the clicked button... (same color as the sad smiley above)


Is there something else I can do?

Do you guys see these lines too when you click on the apple.com top buttons?

As someone who is new to Mac, I don't understand it... It's so ugly...
I didn't buy Mac to see ugly stuff.

How do I get rid of it??? Thanks,
Yoga99

How many people actually visit your site from IE Mac?

Can you give a link so others can test and possibly give better insight?

Don't sweat it. IE on the Mac is obsolete. Get your site working for Safari, Firefox, and IE6 for Windows.

Click to expand...

not literally... you'd be surprised at how many people still use OS 9 and IE is the only browser on their computer because they don't even know that they can get a different browser.
