Dumb html question.
If you have an <a> tag with a graphic that you can click as the link, how do you eliminate the purple border that you get that shows the button has been pressed?
eta: I mean, besides just using a function call instead....
Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

As part of the <a> tag? Doesn't work.
eta: But it works as part of the <img> tag. Cool!

Oops! Yes, because it's an attribute of the image, and I didn't think through a full example before phone-posting.

I put img {border:0;} in my style sheets.

Good idea. Except this huge web application only has a single instance of an image as part of an <a> tag - every other button has a javascript function call instead.
Which is why the Mystery of the Purple Border Around the Button remained unaddressed until now.

Anyone know of a wireless print server that's Mac-compatible and cheaper than Airport Express? The printer is an Epson if that makes a difference.

Jessica -- I spotted this yesterday. It's not exactly what you asked for, and I don't know how good it is, but maybe it's worth a look? [link]

Hmm. I like the price, but the user reviews seem very mixed.
