I recall there being a command that would eliminate the blue border that surrounds an image hyperlink. I believe it was "onfocus=“this.blur()” which is placed in the hyperlink tag, right after the url. However, at my site, [www.nintendovision.com](http://www.nintendovision.com) , it doesn’t appear to be working for the links on the left side of my site. Anyone know why? Or is there another method of removing these annoying borders?

Never mind. Sorry, I figured it out. If a mod see this, could they please delete this thread? Thanks.

If you figured it out, why didn’t you post the answer for the benefit of people who search in the future? Instead of deleting the thread, why not turn the thread into something useful?

Alternatively, to set this to be the default for all images on the page - assuming you’re designing for a CSS-capable audience - you can set it in an inline or linked stylesheet.
```auto
img {border:0px;}
```
If your audience isn’t CSS-equipped, ignore the above!
