Div turns blue if clicked to much - html

I have a simple div that if clicked to much turns blue: JsFiddle
In Chrome its worse, the whole div(30x30px + some other surounding elements) turns blue. Is there anything I can do about this (other than using img)?

Sorry for asking, but isn't this just you marking it by double-clicking it? The "blue" highlight effect would be the normal behaviour in all browsers...
If you do not want this behavior, you should make sure it is not selectable by applying styles:
-moz-user-select: none;
-webkit-user-select: none;
Updated:
For Internet Explorer, use the unselectable tag on your div:
<div class="right" unselectable="on">»</div>

This CSS will do the trick:
div::selection {
display:none;
}​
It sets the selection (highlight) to display:none, so you don't see it.

removing the blue borders in a summary element using css

I'm making my firs steps learning to code. I've been taken some courses on Internet and now I decided to continue learning from the experience while I build a Wordpress child theme.
The thing is that I made a summary. And when it's active it has a blue border.
I'm trying to remove it but I can't find a solution.
I tried suing this without success:
summary:active {
border:none;
}
Do you have some suggestion?
summary:focus{
outline: none;
}
The browser is rendering a border around the summary while it is on focus.
Problem: Its not the border but a outline that browsers render.
Solution: Set outline:none on the element.
So the code would be
summary:focus{
outline: none;
}
To remove it from all inputs
input {
outline: none;
}
To remove it from all tags use the universal selector *:
*:focus {
outline: none;
}
The problem is the input field, not the summary class itself. You can try removing it by using the following code:
input:focus{
outline:none;
}
Hope it helps
People have said to remove with outline: none, which will remove the outline.
However, from an accessibility perspective you should replace the outline with one that fits the brand guidelines.
The outline on an element's focus state is to ensure that someone can tell where they are. Not all users have a point-and-click device, and even if they do, they won't leave their mouse hovering over an element at all times. For field inputs it's worth keeping an outline or other focus style so users know which field they're in.
The A11y Project (accessibility project) has some useful information which covers what I've said.
I'd suggest that rather than doing:
summary:focus {
outline: none !important
}
You talk to the designer to come up a positive focus style, e.g.:
summary:focus {
background: #ffeeee;
color: #242424;
outline: none
}
If it is an input field try this
input:focus{
outline: none !important;
}
I was able to make the blue outline disappear in Safari 10 with:
summary {outline:none;}
Funny thing is that I can't change the specific color of the outline:
summary:focus{outline:red;}
Αlso removed the outline. Using solid and dotted all work as specified, and display it black.
But it looks like the blue color is hard-coded into focused input fields. The very text box I'm using right now has the same light blue outline. Maybe that can't be changed, but you can suppress its visibility or restyle it. You just can't specify a color.
*.no-outline > * :focus {
outline: none;
}
This would remove any the outline for any tag with class no-outline, and also it will remove outline for all its children.

Avoid dashed border around clicked link

I have a link (in fact a dropdown menu link) when clicked I have a dashed border around this link.
How can I avoid this behaviour?
Thanks.
Use the CSS :focus and :active specifiers:
.yourclass:focus, .yourclass:active {
outline: 0; /*make sure no outline appears*/
}
And a little working demo: little link.
Hope this helped!
As an addendum to Chris's, answer (can't comment yet)
Make sure to also include
.yourclass:focus { outline: 0; }
to keep the outline from showing up on some corner cases where the focus remains on an element.

Remove border from buttons

I tried to create buttons and insert my own images instead of the standard button images. However, the gray border from the standard buttons still remains, showing on the outside of my black button images.
Does anyone know how to remove this gray border from the button, so it's just the image itself? Thank you.
Add
padding: 0;
border: none;
background: none;
to your buttons.
Demo:
https://jsfiddle.net/Vestride/dkr9b/
This seems to work for me perfectly.
button:focus { outline: none; }
I was having the same problem and even though I was styling my button in CSS it would never pick up the border:none but what worked was adding a style directly on the input button like so:
<div style="text-align:center;">
<input type="submit" class="SubmitButtonClass" style="border:none;" value="" />
</div>
input[type="button"] {
border: none;
outline:none;
}
You can easily give this style to it:
MyButton {
border: none;
outline: none;
background: none;
}
The border: none; will also do the job for you separately without giving outline (Because: An outline is a line drawn outside the element's border. so when there is no border, outline property doesn't have any meaning on its own).
The background shorthand CSS property sets all background style properties at once, such as color, image, origin and size, or repeat method. so when you set its value to none, then it prevents your button having any color, image and etc....
For removing the default 'blue-border' from button on button focus:
In Html:
<button class="new-button">New Button...</button>
And in Css
button.new-button:focus {
outline: none;
}
Hope it helps :)
Try using: border:0; or border:none;
You can also try background:none;border:0px to buttons.
also the css selectors are div#yes button{..} and div#no button{..} . hopes it helps
Add this as css,
button[type=submit]{border:none;}
Just use:
button{border:none; outline:none;}
The usual trick is to make the image itself part of a link instead of a button. Then, you bind the "click" event with a custom handler.
Frameworks like Jquery-UI or Bootstrap does this out of the box. Using one of them may ease a lot the whole application conception by the way.
You can target the button in the CSS styling like so:
div button {
border: none;
}
$(".myButtonClass").css(["border:none; background-color:white; padding:0"]);

CSS ::after with ::selection?

I am trying to write a selector like this, but to no success:
.something::after::selection
Basically I am already using ::after to inject some content, namely an image. But I want to prevent the user from being able to "select" this image and get an ugly blue back-shadow.
Normally I can prevent this with the following:
.something::selection
{
background-color: transparent;
}
But it does not seem to combine well with ::after.
Has anyone tried this before or have a solution?
No, in firefox I'm 100% sure that you can't change that effect on selected images, is system-specific, and not customizable yet
*edited
To prevent images to be selected you can use following css:
img {
-o-user-select: none;
-moz-user-select: none;
-webkit-user-select: none;
user-select: none;
}
Also see the updated jsfiddle.
With ::after see this jsfiddle.

Forms and CSS Questions

1) Is there a way to completely hide the IE scrollbar on textareas? (I'm primarily concerned with IE8) overflow: hidden or auto don't seem to work.
2) Is there a way to stop safari and chrome from "highlighting" focused form elements?
3) Is there a way to disable resizing of textareas?
overflow:hidden;
outline: none; (on the :focus pseudo-class of the element)
resize: none;
If worse comes to worst, you can absolute position a div on top of the scrollbar to hide it.
