tom, if anyone knows, it will be your pal jeff
you two snugglebunnies, eh
chase, i think it can be done with an event handler in javascript
jeff will know
here's my take on the issue, if you're interested: don't worry about it
although if you're being *paid* to find out, chase, that might be a
different story
i would mention to the client not to override browser behaviour
dear client:
IE users (but how many is that, eh) will have become accustomed
to that behaviour, because it happens on all the other sites they
visit, so it's fair to expect that some users (but how many would
even notice, eh) will have seen the dotted lines whenever they use
the back button (as if any of them actually ever go back, eh), so
it is entirely possible that some of them will also have come to
expect to see the dotted lines...
"ah, where was i before i clicked away to
that unfortunate other site, let's see...
hmm, i know i got there from here...
where was i? where's my dotted lines?"
personally, i would do nothing to confuse IE users, dear client,
but if you wish me to take out the dotted lines, please instruct me
to take out the dotted lines
;o)
