How to remove border from clicked image?
Hello guys,
When I click small images, I can see dotted border around clicked image in Firefox. I wonder, how can I fix it with CSS?

As far as I know there is no way to remove that. Its a part of the browsers rendering and can not be stopped as it is done client side. Its really a safety measure. If you accidentally click an image and you didn't know it was a link you see the dotted border and can drag out of the click or stop the browser.

You can removed it with the outline property but I would highly advise against this as it is an accessibility feature.

I believe it's part of the :focus value and can be removed but should be left alone as it will also be removed for any keyboard users who use tab to flick through the links on a page.
Without this outline, they'll have no idea where focus currently lies which will make the page unnavigable for any keyboard users.
Leave well alone in my opinion.
